Maybe just proof of residence in the U.S., such as a lease agreement or deed.

There are medical, religious, and other types of waivers.

These are trying times and I think the proof will be in the pudding, whether courts at the appellate level, including the Supreme Court, push back against totalitarianism and uphold the law. That's an open question. And then of course,

A company sponsoring an employee for a green card must show that it has the ability to pay the offered wage and this is more complicated when the company just has funding and no revenues or limited revenues. Also if the sponsored employee o

The concern is that USCIS is cancelling students F-1 status without the student being made aware of this because of some issue (prior arrests or convictions, political statements, etc.) but before you travel internationally, as an F-1 stude

You must be a W-2 employee while in H-1B status.

Yes, there is a way to keep a green card while living outside the U.S. although at some point, if the green card holder truly has no intent of returning to the U.S., he or she will lose the green card. The protection is known as a reentry

Education is irrelevant. A PhD in and of itself doesn't help but it usually means that the individual has published, engaged in original research/work, etc. but someone can have published, engaged in original research/work,

If there is a travel ban, then the specifics of the ban will matter (countries impacted, whether LPRs and citizens are exempt, etc.) but absent a travel ban, I still think it's fine to travel. Just be prepared to have your devices sear

The main thing you learn in law school is not the substantive law but how to analyze facts and issues and to understand the law and its application to specific facts.

She has not filed a green card application so she probably won't have an issue renewing her TN but if CBP or USCIS connects her to you, questions might be raised about her intent which could undermine her ability to renew her TN. So,

The details matter (the type of green card application, the green card category, the position held then, the new position, etc.) so it's impossible for me to comment. You should schedule a consultation with an immigration attorney.

It doesn't matter unless it matters, which it doesn't appear to; the issue in an I-94 history is when a timely departure isn't recorded, not an arrival. There's also no effective way to fix this error.

Without knowing all the facts, the delay probably is simply the result in the backlog in that green card category. Is your spouse eligible to become a U.S. citizen because this could speed up the process for you. Again without knowing all t

A work visa/status won't help. He has to deal with the overstay issue first, which he should be able to fix since presumably his overstay happened because he was unable to travel/depart before his status expired.

The filing of your I-485 application allows you to stay and still marriage-based green card applications are being approved quickly.

I'm probably the last person to provide advice about technology but AI is helping immigration attorneys significantly, primarily in the drafting of arguments. That being said, there's still a critical role to be played by immigrat

Probably not but I can't advise because I don't have all the paperwork in front of me. The company's immigration attorney should be able to advise.

Because you have cofounders, an H-1B might work. The other option is the O-1. You should schedule a consultation with an immigration attorney to determine the best path.

Most consulates are willing to schedule expedited appointments for YC founders but still if you are an applicant for an accelerator and don't have a B-1 visa and are not from a visa waiver/ESTA country, then at a minimum, you shou

Yes, you and your current employer need to file an I-485J if proceeding based on the approved EB3 petition but whether you will have an issue because of the change in positions will need to be analyzed (although you probably are fine). Does

Legally, the correct answers are No and Yes.

The short answer is Yes, this individual can still get a U.S. visa. But I'd still recommend that this person speak with an attorney before applying for a visa or traveling to the U.S.

The concerns on the part of CBP when someone is seeking admission as a B-1 business visitor are the appropriateness of the applicant's proposed activities and the applicant's ties to home/intent to return home (Canada). So yo

I'm not sure I understand what you are asking. Do you mean the average per startup or the total number? All I can say is that startups usually can sponsor H-1Bs without issue.

This really depends on the reason for the 221(g) and the applicant's country of citizenship or birth. Unfortunately, for those from certain countries, such as Iran and Russia, it has not been uncommon for such applications to go into a

Yes. I still think that those with student or work visas or green cards should travel internationally. It's just a question of being smart and carrying the right documents. The right documents will vary depending on the status so I c

What was quoted below is really just codifying what existed in practice, that is, founders/owners of companies getting sponsored by their own companies. To answer your question, a job offer/employment is still a requirement and I
