Can non immigrant who is on f1 OPT can sponsor his spouse who is in detention center ? For parole ?
I applied for residency based on a PERM in 2016. I later was sent to a removal proceeding early in 2017 due to an Interpol Red Notice that was cleared by the end of that year. At the beginning of 2018, the judge instructed the chief counsel to send the I140 back to the Texas Service Center for adjudication. To this date, it has not. I filed for TPS for Venezuelans and was approved last week. My son is a resident and has applied for citizenship and will apply for AOS in my case once approved. Is my TPS approval enough to request a dismissal or termination of the removal proceedings?
Hello, Thank you for your comment. We would like to refer you to our Free Legal Answers platform for this question. ABA Federal Free Legal Answers is an initiative that enables eligible users to ask questions about federal immigration and veterans’ topics. You can create an account and ask your question here: abafederal.freelegalanswers.org/
Thanks for the amazing presentation and tips. I have one question with regards to the proof of pending I-589 with Immigration Court, in one of my cases, I didn't receive a time stamp on the I-589 because the court only received electronic filings on the eROP. Accordingly, what kind of proof can we add that is valid for USCIS?
Hi Lina, thank you for your comment. According to the eCAS manual: “(g) Timing of Filings. An electronic filing that is accepted by an immigration court or the BIA will be deemed filed on the date it was successfully uploaded. See 8 C.F.R. § 1001.1(dd). A successful upload means the document was uploaded through the Case Portal or DHS Portal without error. Documents are automatically watermarked and date stamped upon successful upload.” Therefore, a printout of the eCAS page should be sufficient and show the date filed. In an abundance of caution, you could also share the email confirmation provided by EOIR following the upload of the document to eCAS. Hope this helps!
How we know our intial application of i765 they recieved ?
*Promo sm* 😁
Is the Application for Travel Permit included with the I-485 package?? should I submit it?
How long does from i290 b take for a decision
Thank you for your question. The response time for I-290B depends on the underlying case being appealed. Here are the most recent case processing times provided by case-type www.uscis.gov/administrative-appeals/aao-processing-times.
Thank you! Very helpful.
Can anyone recommend free mental health counseling to undocumented migrants?
Thanks you for your quick update
Thank you so much! This is extremely helpful. God bless
What's the thinking behind not giving last names for the presenters? In my culture, referring to strangers by their first names, especially when they're female professionals and experts, is very disrespectful.
This is a great presentation. I am wondering if you can please put me in touch with Mark Prada? I represent a bunch of Cubans and I need a bit of additional guidance. Thank you!
Hello, I am concurrently filing for tps along with my I-765 online. But, I noticed they only have (a)(12) as the eligibility category under the drop down. I thought they should have had the c 19 on the drop down since it’s the right code for those with a pending application. Based on what I read on their website, the c 19 is for those who have a pending I-821 application while the a 12 is for those who have already been approved tps. However, I thought may be they put the a12 only on there because they have an exception for online filings and may be when you apply it's considered approved or accepted. Or it could be that their online platform still have sole hiccups and things that need to be ironed out. Have you used a 12 before for first time tps applicants when concurrently filing online? Do you know if a 12 is the right category for first time tps applicants when they are concurrently filing for tps and a work permit online?

What about cubans that come to United States and use the the political reason they’re here, but still coming to request for a green card to be able to travel and only come here to work and not stay. Buying a home in cuba and plan to come to USA every six months to work.
completely irrelevant to these type of cases

Is Ukrainians who arrived in USA by visa after May 2 eligible to apply for TPS ?
Thanks for sharing this. Question for Lindsay Harris, you mentioned studies suggest that awareness itself can prevent symptoms of secondary trauma from developing. Could you please share one or more references that support that? Thanks!
Hi Lisa! Thank you for your question. Professors Harris and Mellinger's publication, Asylum Attorney Burnout and Secondary Trauma, provides citation to this very concept. Their publication is available at papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3787163 . See FN286. “It has been suggested that the best defense against these conditions is education about them, including a clear understanding of the phenomena themselves, their risk factors, and symptoms.” (citations omitted).

MacNeil, Professional Burnout, Vicarious Trauma, Secondary Traumatic Stress, and Compassion Fatigue: A Review of Theoretical Terms, Risk Factors, and Preventive Methods for Clinicians and Researchers, 6 BEST PRACS.

WHY IS THERE NO VOLUME WOW!
Too bad the people talk so fast and we can barely hear the proceedings. I have the volume max up.
Thank you for this video. Yes, the sound quality could be better. Perhaps adding close caption to this video?
Sound sucks!!! Can't understand a freakin thing!!!
Good video, but the sound quality is not good (too much static) :(
