Same answers as yesterday.   Filing an I-130 won't fix anything.  Find a good Family Immigration Lawyer. Renounce your membership and file the I-290(B).

They record all interviews so you can request that to prove you didn’t lie, that the mistake on the forms was corrected during the interview.

 

Get a good attorney. This is time for serious business.

Thanks very much, i hope I can get good lawyer, but I don’t know too much lawyers

You should also look into legal malpractice, so that you can recover some of your money you paid to the attorney, maybe help pay for the next one.

Won’t happen.

Reopen is better or just refile

Neither option will work for you.  You have an inadmissibility (CCP membership) which requires a waiver.  Like you’ve been told in this thread, this is very serious.  It is not something you can undertake without a good lawyer.  Do your research and find one.

You can find an attny by googling your states name + bar + referral. The bar association can provide referrals. Try to get as many free consults as possible and then additional paid consults as needed. Compare the advice you are given among the attnys. Use what one tells you to speak to the others- be skeptical of any of them who say something different from the overall consensus of opinions or presents it as not a big deal to fix. You can also post back what you were told and users here can help you assess who appears to be the best attny or help you make sense of what they are telling you. 

 

Generally speaking as explained already you are responsible for the contents of your forms not your attny. It is good though that you were able to correct the incorrect answer at the interview and did not stay silent. It seems they allowed you to change your answer with out any misrep type penalty however you still have the issue of the question being a 'yes' answer. An attny can advise you if it is better to attempt to fix this through the appeal process or to refile. Its a shame your first attny knew of the issue and advised you to go to the interview under the impression all you had to do was tell them of the correction and it would be OK. You should also write out (as soon as you can since memories fade) a word for word transcript from memory of what was asked and what you said. The interview may have been recorded but even if it wasnt any thing you said in it was under oath and part of your record. If you offered any type of explanation or extended answers to questions your answers are important. You can not change what you already said, your answers may need to be explained further or clarified. It will be important for the attny to know what was asked and your answers, so try to write out what you can recall to the best of your ability. This is going to be a long process to attempt to correct. You can expect to pay a large amount for legal assistance and there is no guarantee of the outcome. Best of luck. 

thank you very much
