Hey everyone, so im getting ready to soon sponsor my parents for the i130 and i485 as a USC shortly
Question is this. However, my parents raised one issue. The i-485 document requests employment history.
My parents entered the country as students on F1 legally but overstated their visa by many years.
They have i94 arrival records, original visa's etc so thats not an issue.
After their student visas expired they just kept working the jobs that would let them work with-ought their status. They've filed an paid taxes every year since year 1 so there are no back taxes and they have a clean IRS record.
But with them not having work authorization, what do they fill out on the employment history section? one of my mothers friends advised her to leave it blank as she did when she filed for her parents. however i dont agree i feel as though this is misrepresentation and could lead to a denial that probably wouldn't have been a denial in the first place due to them being immediate relatives.
Has anyone gone through something similar? what did you do on your application for them?
another question is as they are still currently employed, do they need to quit their jobs as well before filing?
