Looking for attorney recommendations for a very specific immigration issue:

Denied I-751 widow waiver after interview, with USCIS apparently relying on an incorrect death certificate issue.

My spouse s original death certificate incorrectly listed her as single / never married. That was later officially amended, and the corrected death certificate was submitted to USCIS before the denial. But the denial still seems to rely on the incorrect version.

I m looking for lawyers who have real experience with:
- I-751 widow/deceased spouse waivers
- I-751 denials
- I-290B motions

- I-751 Resubmit Strategy
- death certificate amendment / civil record inconsistency issues

If anyone knows an attorney who has handled something similar, please share the name and why you recommend them.

Thank you.

Good day everyone,

we received the letter:

REQUEST FOR PETITIONER TO APPEAR FOR INITIAL INTERVIEW

Case Type(s)
FORM I751, PETITION TO REMOVE CONDITIONS ON RESIDENCE

Process started - 03/26/2024 - Appt 04/17/26

I'm going over again what is needed, but since the first interview went so smooth, I'm thinking the same for this one,

--Should we upload all documents (bills, mtg, insurance, banks statements, taxes) before the interview? pictures?

or just bring them that day?

What main questions do they ask?

Thanks everyone

My parents became US green card holders in 2024 via sponsorship by my US citizen brother. They plan to visit Houston, TX on May 1, 2026, apply for a 2-year re-entry permit on May 5 to stay in India (dad wrapping up business/personal commitments), then visit me in Toronto, ON, Canada from May 15. They did biometrics in Dallas during 2024 green card process:

(1)Is it OK for them to apply for re-entry permit (Form I-131?) in Houston on May 5, then travel to Toronto May 15?

(2) What exact reason should dad list for 2-year absence (business wind-down/personal matters in India)?Do they need new biometrics for I-131, given the fact that they already completed their biometrics in 2024 when they came to USA to complete their Greencard landing process requirements?

(3) If biometrics required (e.g., scheduled June 15), can they visit Toronto May 15- mid-June first, then return to US for it? What if they apply May 5 but leave for Canada before their biometrics is completed what are the risks to application/green card?

Hello
I have a disabled adult child and after some research I am thinking I may be able to apply for an N-600 for him since he has had this disability since birth and as of yet not 21. I have been querying AI and it's informed me that it's possible but I cannot find the concrete verbiage in the policy manual or US code in reference to "...permits an individual who is age 18 or older to be considered a 'child' if he or she has a developmental or physical disability or mental impairment." I am in infant stages of my research but I am hopeful someone smarter than me can point me in the right direction.

TIA

Hi I'm so sorry if this is not in the correct spot..

I've been getting mixed advice but I believe that I must wait for the welcome letter to arrive from the NVC which includes the invoice ID number.. Also I've been told I'm wrong about this, but I've read on the NVC site that this visa is immigrant visa and that it must be treated as such when navigating the NVC / ceac sites.. I was told I'm wrong that I have to use non immigrant and start the ds160 and pay the fee and schedule his interview.... I'm so confused now. We've been "ready" status since Thursday last week.. Any advice would be great! Thanks so much
