VAWA, Part 10

[nap_o 169]

Guys, 

 

What are your thoughts about traveling with Advance Parole while VAWA is pending? I've been waiting to visit my country because my grandma is very sick, I want to at least say goodbye it breaks my heart not being able to see her one last time so I would like to apply for AP.

Dear Collaborators, please help me with the following concerns: If a lawyer took the case of a client in USCIS and then a second lawyer is sought to represent me in the replacement of the first lawyer that sends to USCIS the FORM G-28.
I ask:
1. Does the fact that the second lawyer sends the G-28 FORM automatically replace the first lawyer?
2. If one changes in USCIS, do the communications that USCIS sends when they reach the first lawyer?
3. What happens if the first lawyer does not notify a USCIS that he no longer represents the client?
On the other hand, I would like to know if in the place of the registered address in USCIS, you can have the address of your lawyer, to prevent the abuser from having information.
Thank you all ...

Will wait for any answers... 

I do not have an attorney at the moment. I have since moved to another state. The only thing I've been able to do is doing my change of address through USPS. So far, I think USCIS did not remove my attorney on file or updated my address...

That situation also worries me because I do not know if my new one when I sent the FORM FORM G-28 automatically replaced the first lawyer, otherwise, it means that the first lawyer knows everything I'm doing.

Me too.. I called and emailed the attorney so many times. I don't know what else to do. I don't want him to receive more of my mail from my case

It would be nice if someone here in the forum with much experience would clarify if the fact that a lawyer sends the FORM G-28 automatically replaces the first lawyer and USCIS never again sends information to the first lawyer

I asked my lawyer his opinion about my case and taking the AP.  

I’ve been here for 10 years, and he said no. My chances to be denied to come back is huge. 

I really don’t know what to do. 

I already had my interview but no decision yet!! 

It’s Pending adjudication....

I feel so bad! Everyone gets their decision and I’m not!!!

Yes, I'm scared I won't be allowed back in the USA... I came with tourist visa and overstayed 2 months.

I am not an expert but what I have read about your case is that the people who have traveled have Vawa approved. They have not had any problems if they have to prove the reason for their trip, even I know that the lawyers do not recommend traveling. That is a personal decision that you have to make, make the decision that feels most comfortable for you.

It's a gamble. Many people travel on AP with no problems but some people don't make it back. Personally I don't think it's worth the risk unless there is an emergency.

I traveled through Canada and was fine but I have never been out of status. I don't plan to travel again until I have my green card. I don't think it's worth the risk and I definitely would not travel if I came over on a tourist visa and overstayed

To end representation, your old lawyer needs to send a letter to USCIS informing them that he/she is ending representation for you. After that, your new lawyer can send form G-28 with his/her name. But representation is not ended until formally sent to USCIS by the old lawyer.

It's really up to you. But I take the risk and I came back without problems. We have the same situation.

So my old lawyer is still getting the correspondences even though I change my address in USCIS?
