Hello all, I am summarizing important dates and milestones below so that you can have a complete picture. Just for some context, I am a US citizen (born and raised here). · Feb 2014: Got married and applied for wife's green card · Oct 2014: Wife arrived in the US · Aug 2016: Wife left the US due to a dispute in the relationship; during this time she was also pregnant. · Late 2016: Wife's green card expired · May 2017: Daughter born in Pakistan, now a dual national with Pakistani and US passports · Late 2017: I moved to Dubai and my family joined me there from Pakistan. Since then, we are living a very happy married life. Our daughter is almost 6 years now and one more baby is on its way soon. · Dec 2018: Received letter from USCIS stating that conditional permanent residence status was terminated (please see the attached picture) · Jan 2018: Hired lawyer who found out that there is a removal order in wife's name. This is probably because USCIS thought that my wife is in USA and not appearing for her biometric testing. Hence, a removal order was issued at that time. However, my wife had already left the US in late 2016. I am attaching my last communication with that lawyer as a PDF with this email. No further communication with after this. · Present: We are ready to move back to the US after the birth of our second child. · End 2024: Plan to move back to the US I have two important questions now: 1) I am about to start the process of i-130 again. Do I need to mention entire details of the previous application, and explained what happened between 2014 and 2018? 2) What should I be doing with that removal order? I am hoping that by talking to you guys over here, I can at least get some clarity regarding what should be my next steps. In the meantime, I am also trying my best to reach out to the previous lawyer but so far he has completely ghosted me. Anyway, do you guys think that my first step should be to start wife's green card application? Any kind of feedback, or if you have any follow up question, please let me know as I am really looking forward to get some piece of advice from here. Thanks Last communication with Lawyer.pdf
