 After many legal challenges to President Trump's Muslim Ban signed on January 27, 2017, a revised Executive Order was signed on March 6th. This second travel ban has many similar restrictions as the first; however, some changes have been made as well.

 The implementation of the Executive Order has varied greatly from airport to airport, as U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have or have not been complying with federal court emergency stays and temporary restraining order. Furthermore, the State Department and Department of Homeland Security have provided varying official statements and quotes to the media regarding the effect of the Executive Order.
 Whether your parents are living in the United States or abroad, there are ways to sponsor your mother and father for a Green Card (also known as legal permanent residency). Parents are considered "Immediate Relatives," which is a preferred category according to United States immigration agencies. In other words, the processing times for a parent's Green Card application is significantly faster than other preference categories such as a sibling's application.
 As an immigration attorney, I receive many questions daily regarding the immigration process. Below are ten questions I hear often. I have provided short answers for each question as well. I hope they help!
 As many know, a criminal record could have potential negative consequences on immigration applications. However, many do not know that the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) looks beyond arrests and charges when evaluating whether a foreign national should receive immigration benefits. For example, regardless of whether there was an expungement, USCIS looks at the underlying alleged actions and crime. In other words, it is possible to have an expungement or a sentence suspended, but USCIS can possibly still approve OR reject immigration benefits based on the underlying crime alleged and the circumstances surrounding it.
 Wedding Dress: Check. Wedding Reception: Check. Honeymoon: Check. Now, what?
Congratulations on your marriage! This is an exciting time of merging two lives into one. If you are a foreign national and your spouse is a United States citizen, you may be eligible to apply for legal permanent residency (also known as a Green Card). A U.S. citizen's spouse is considered an "immediate relative," which is a special class or category according to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). |
