Attorney answers:
I have recieved an approved petition from immigration,I-797. What does this mean? What would be the next step?
It means good news. I assume that you had filed a I-130 petition and your notice says that it was approved. Next step is Adjustment of Status, if your husband is in the US. Unless you already filed it, you need to file the full I-485 package to adjust his status. Good luck!

Ella no puede trabajar enquanto esta aqui atraves de la visa R2. Pero si puede cambiar el "status" si tiene otra visa disponible. Por ejemplo, si ella tiene una especialidad que se necessita en USA y fue ofrecida trabajo. En general, ella no puede trabajar.

F1 Student: Options after graduation? Marriage to American citizen?
The best thing to do would be to get married before your F-1 expires, then file I-130 package together with I-485 package and for employment authorization, all at the same time. This way you will make sure that you have no gaps in your immigration status and that all your paperwork is done on time. I-130 and I-485 filed together will give you "pending I-485" status. Plus, you can also file for employment authorization, which you should get within 90 days after filing and then you will be able...

How do i get child support dropped since kids dont live with dad and have lived with me since divorce
Hello, It is hard to give you a proper answer without knowing all the details, however, in general, what you need to do is to modify your child support obligations through court proceeding. Usually it is done through the original court where your divorce took place. You would need to reopen the case and file a petition for modification of child support and custody. I would advise to hire an attorney to make sure that everything is done properly. This should not cost you very much because it is...

I am married to US citizen.I filed I-485 and I-130 15 months ago.My field office is Miami.I went to Immigration office twice via
You are still within normal processing times. Since you had appointments and apparently they did not have problems locating your file, you should be fine. You can call USCIS and request the status check on your case - they will have to respond in writing within 30 days. Good luck!

Attorney answers:
PLEASE HELP - Need legal assistance ASAP for 2 state divorce
Since your divorce is in WI, you need representation of an attorney licensed there to help you. Thus, you need to search for legal aid there through internet and phone books. I am licensed only in Florida and cannot advise on legal issues in WI, however, you do need to respond to the petition within time allowed. Another thing you can do, is to contact the court's clerk and ask if they can provide you with forms/self-help kits. Good luck!
