Motion to Reopen Removal Proceedings to Apply for 212(c) pertains to certain aliens who were lawful permanent residents, who are subject to a final order of deportation or removal, who are eligible to apply for relief under section 212(c). These proceedings shall be reopened SOLELY for the purpose of adjudicating the application for section 212(c) relief. Do you qualify for 212(c) relief? At this time, it may be possible for you to file a Motion to Reopen Removal Proceedings to Apply for 212(c) pertains to certain aliens who were lawful permanent residents, who are subject to a final order of deportation or removal, who are eligible to apply for relief under section 212(c). These proceedings shall be reopened SOLELY for the purpose of adjudicating the application for section 212(c) relief. A section 212c waiver allows certain long time green card holders who have been placed in removal proceedings because they were convicted of a criminal offense to avoid being deported.Congress repealed former section 212(c) of the Immigration and Naturalization Act effective April 1, 1997. However, the United States Supreme Court decided in 2001 that the repeal does not apply to lawful permanent residents who pleaded guilty to a crime before April 1, 1997 INS v. St. Cyr, 533 U.S. 289. On December 12, 2011, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an important decision further protecting the rights of immigrants under the St. Cyr decision.In Judulang v. Holder, the Supreme Court unanimously held that the government’s policy for deciding when lawful permanent resident immigrants may apply for 212(c) relief from deportation for pre-1996 guilty plea convictions deeming such immigrants ineligible for relief if the deportation ground at issue does not have a sufficiently comparable inadmissibility ground was arbitrary and capricious in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act.The Court remanded the case for the government to adopt a new approach that does not arbitrarily deny long-term permanent resident immigrants such as Mr. Judulang from being able to apply for relief from deportation. In 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court issued another important decision protecting the rights of immigrants with long ago criminal convictions to travel abroad without risking detention and removal upon their return. In all of these immigration situations, it is possible under the right circumstances to make a motion to reopen proceeding to apply for 212(c) relief. This sample gives a great place to start. While it would be better and more effective to use an experienced attorney, it is clear that many times people just do not have the funds to retain an attorney.

The S Nonimmigrant Visa allows Foreign Nationals with critical information on criminal or terrorist organizations to come to the U.S. to provide this critical information to law enforcement. There are also different classifications of the S Visa: The S-5 applies to Criminal Informants, the S-6 applies to Terrorist Informants, and the S-7 applies to Accompanying Family members. Certain family members of the alien providing the information—spouse, parents, and children—are also eligible for admission into the United States in an S nonimmigrant derivative status. The S nonimmigrant visa is a special visa available to those individuals who assist law enforcement as a witness or informant in a criminal investigation or prosecution. This visa allows the witness or informant to come to or remain in the United States during the investigation or prosecution of the criminal act. The US government created this visa for people who would be inadmissible to the US if they applied for any other type of visa. Also the visa is for those who would be deportable. These are people who have a past criminal record or problems with their immigration status. The S visa allows the Secretary of Homeland Security to waive these grounds of inadmissibility. The waiver applies only if the person in question has valuable information on a criminal or terrorist organization or activity. The person would have to prove that they are a valuable witness. Their information would have to lead to discovering or preventing an illegal activity from happening in the US. This visa is also helpful for those witnesses who hold information and are in danger in their home countries because of it. The US government can provide a safe haven for them in the country as long as they cooperate with the relevant authorities. This particular sample is an actual S Visa Petition for somebody who was a material witness and which is processed through U.S. Immigration Law. Of course, it would be sure that the ultimate beneficiary had the requisite requirements needed to fulfill the S visa and that in fact they were a material witness.

If granted, you will be given an S Visa which will allow you to work and then some time afterwards, you can apply for the Green Card. We certainly hope you find this petition useful and helpful and hope for the best immigration experience you can have.

Either way, if you qualify for this, you must make it as strong as possible. As a sibling of a US citizen, I understand how important it is to be reunited with family. However, the process of bringing siblings to the United States can be a long and complicated one. In this article, I will explain the I-130 processing time for sibling immigration petitions in 2021, factors that can affect processing time, tips for speeding up the process, and what to do if your petition is taking longer than expected. Sibling immigration petitions are a way for US citizens to bring their brothers and sisters to the United States. It is important to note that only US citizens can petition for their siblings. Permanent residents are not eligible to file a sibling immigration petition. Additionally, the sibling must be unmarried and over the age of 21. The process of filing a sibling immigration petition involves submitting Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, to US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This form establishes the relationship between the US citizen and their sibling and serves as the first step in the immigration process. The I-130 form is a petition that establishes a family relationship between a US citizen and their sibling. The form must be completed accurately and submitted to USCIS along with supporting documents, such as birth certificates and marriage certificates. Once USCIS receives the I-130 form, they will review it to ensure that it is complete and accurate. If there are any issues or missing information, USCIS will request additional documentation or clarification. If the I-130 form is approved by USCIS, it will be sent to the National Visa Center (NVC) for further processing. The NVC will then send the petition to the US embassy or consulate in the sibling's home country, where they will be interviewed and screened for eligibility for a visa to enter the United States. The processing time for sibling immigration petitions can vary greatly depending on a number of factors. In general, USCIS estimates that the processing time for an I-130 form is between 7 and 15 months. We certainly hope you find this petition useful and helpful and hope for the best immigration experience you can have. We do have petitions on every subject area of immigration, and you might look at those if needed as well.

However, in many cases, while it is unfortunate that you were a victim of crime, this might be the only way you will be able to obtain legal status, the work permit and eventually the Green Card. The U nonimmigrant status (U visa) is set aside for victims of certain crimes who have suffered mental or physical abuse and are helpful to law enforcement or government officials in the investigation or prosecution of criminal activity. One reason it takes so long is that there are only 10,000 issued per year and the fact is that there are many more victims of crime than 10,000. Thus, it now takes several years to move forward. However, if you do not do this and get in line, you will never be able to get it.

You can put your own facts and information in this petition, and note that it will be a very good sample for you to proceed with the marriage petition for yourself. The sample USC Marriage Petition will give lots of great information and a significant amount of information and data that will comply with the requirements.

Note that the adjudicating officer at USCIS is not your friend or the Consulate Officer at the U.S. Consulate deciding whether you should get this particular visa or status. Thus, you need to completely and properly document and prepare your Marriage Petition. You must properly either get legal representation via an attorney or represent yourself. Either way, if you qualify for this, you must make it as strong as possible. Many times people will think that paying somebody to marry them to get the Green Card is the best and fastest way to obtain legal status. However, that is far from the truth. Marriage fraud, if you are adjudicated to have committed marriage fraud, means that you will not be able to get immigration benefits for the rest of your life. Furthermore, the U.S. Citizen can be criminally prosecuted. Even if no legal action occurs, the US Citizen will be demanding money from you year after year with no end in sight. Additionally, not all people in this situation will qualify for  adjustment of status. For example, if the foreign national committed crimes of moral turpitude or other types of crimes or commits fraud, a Waiver of Inadmissibility will be needed. Alternatively, if the U.S. Citizen committed various sex related crimes, then a Walsh Waiver will be needed to proceed forward. We certainly hope you find this petition useful and helpful and hope for the best immigration experience you can have. We do have petitions on every subject area of immigration, and you might look at those if needed as well.
