I am currently attempting to fill out a I-130 form for my father. He is currently in Peru and has been there since 1994 (past 10 year ban). He was deported after being found guilty for a felony of theft in VA. My question is, is filling out an I-130 form the only action that I can perform, or is this situation become too complicated that would require a lawyer?

 

Thank you for your help!

Begs the question if he is eligible for a waiver for the Felony, some are some are not.

 

Assuming he is does he have a qualifying relative to file a waiver, parent, spouse?

I would not know if he is eligible or not, I suppose I would have to figure out the status behind that.

 

Would I not be able to file a waiver on his behalf, since I am his son?

Child is not a qualifying relative.

Why does his father need a waiver if it is past the 10 year bar?

I assume that was for illegal presence.

  The 10 year bar for illegally being here, then there is the deportation and the fact the man is a felon.  He probably has a lifetime ban. I would think theft is also a CMIT crime.  Filing may be no more than donating money to immigration if he can never get a waiver. 

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

Because of the felony, likely a separate issue due to added inadmissibility.

I agree. Just so OP isn’t confused, if i’m not wrong, his father cannot apply for waiver at his time even if the father’s father is the qualifying relative. Only when OP’s father appears for the interview and if the CO finds him inadmissible under certain sections, then only he can apply for the waiver.

There is hardly and doubt he is inadmissible, the question is whether a waiver is available.

I personally would have a consultation to see of it is even worth starting.
