(And avoid painfully unnecessary delays and a denial...)
Congratulations on your marriage! You may be here with or without legal immigration status and you're ready to apply for the greencard. Your spouse is a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident and now you're thinking... What's next? What forms do I need? I'm out of status, will I have a problem? I'm here on my visa, will I lose my status? How long will this take? And does my spouse make enough to sponsor me? We tackle all of these questions while getting our clients through a successful immigration process.
STEP 1 - Prepare
I and my team help clients to pinpoint exactly how they need to prepare themselves and the documents to apply for the marriage greencard.
STEP 2 - Compose
Marriage is not a one size fits all. Your story and the evidence showing your marriage is real will not be the same in all situations. We compose the best evidence to get an approved greencard.
STEP 3 - Review
Chances are, this is your first rodeo. You don't know the red flags or the mistakes that lead to delays or a denial. We review your application to make sure those red flags are not present.
STEP 4 - File
We make sure the filing process is smooth and seamless by guiding you on where and how to file your application.
I hate to be a party pooper. But during all these years I've seen unrepresented couples go into the process blindly and then trip over these major problems in their immigration process. Many of these problems started because they did not prepare a solid winning application. I help my clients avoid these issues. At 100% approval, I can say my work is effective.
You Underestimate the Process...
This is usually the beginning of the disaster. You think ..."it's just paperwork..." Then you find out your process is delayed by 6 months because of a single mistake..., you get a nasty letter from immigration asking for more evidence, or you even a notice to deny.
Wrong Forms...
You forget that a form and then that causes a delay of 6 to 12 months or even a denial! Or you don't complete the sponsorship forms correctly.
Wrong filing location...
You file at the wrong location. After weeks of waiting, the application gets rejected and now you have to file all over again. Worst, they accept you form at the wrong location, cash your fee payment, and then deny your application without a refund.
Red Flagged Evidence...
Incomplete or insufficient evidence causes your application to get red flagged. For example, you only include that marriage certificate in the application. Then you go into an unpleasant interview, only to get a denial.
The Dreaded Second Interview
An application that is not done well, can lead to the scheduling of a second interview. Called the Stokes Interview. This usually means they aren't convinced your marriage is real and they're calling you back to decide whether it's Marriage Fraud. This is serious.
You're not alone! These are valid questions. We resolve each one of these questions and concerns easily for our clients. The great thing about my representation is, all of your questions, doubts and fears about the process will be alleviated. As an experienced Attorney, I am equipped with the knowledge to prepare a solid marriage based petition for you.
