I had an older post describing my situation and how my i-130 was denied. I left the US and now I'm in my country. I'm trying to stay strong and just move on with my life, it hasn't been so easy for my mom due the fact that i had to leave on my own and my american siblings are still in US as well as her. I want to turn the page and move on to the next chapter but want to be able to see my family, I'm not looking on moving back to the US but i want to be able to visit my family. I'm not asking for a pity party, I just want to know if theres a way i could do that?

My lawyer filed for I824 APPLICATION FOR ACTION ON AN APPROVED APPLICATION OR PETITION, i really don't know what that means. Is that even appropriate for my case?

the 1-824 has many things on it to check off, the fee is 405.00, you should download the 1-824 instructions read it very carefully,family members,derivative visas,so you can get an idea what the lawyer ia doing.

I can't find your older post so I'm not really sure what your prior situation was. The I-824 is just to request another copy of an approved petition but you state your petition was denied. Did you ask your attorney why he is filing this?

Is this the same lawyer you spoke of in the other post?

no, they had a firm together but now they have their own office.

Fye, the reason I asked is , it is not clear what you or the lawyer is trying to do. There is no wavier for a tourist visa, and your mother is still a LPR, your AOS was denied and you have a 10 year ban. So out of all of these ations, what are you'll challenging?

I'm not sure whats going on since she's the one doing all the paper work. The lawyer mention the 10 years ban didn't apply to me, i'm not sure why. i left 18months after my 18th birthday.

You have incurred a 10 year ban for your overstay. No way you will ever get a tourist visa.

Important enough to emphasize: you will never, ever, as long as you live, be able to get a non-immigrant visa to the US again.

The only way for you to return to he US is via an immigrant visa, based on an approved I-130 from your mother. Unless you get an I-601 approved (which is a big deal), that will be in a little over 10 years.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

I think the starting point is getting the I130 approved. You also did not mention if you have a qualifying relative with enough hardship to get

an I601 approved. Check with your lawyer and get a second opinion, it does not sound like the attorney is taking the correct next step.
