I only just learned that I may be forgiven for my overstays as the wife of a USC. I admitted my overstays and the dates on my i-485. Does that then make me ineligible?
Under general eligibility and inadmissibility grounds I answered "yes" to question 76. Since April 1 1997 I was unlawfully present in the United States as I was present after the expiration period of authorized stay. My original post was to clarify the USCIS wording regarding immediate relatives may be forgiven even if the applicant has EVER violated the terms of their nonimmigrant status. Is it the length or the amount of times that are a factor in the likelihood of having issues at AOS?
I was admitted to the US on a B2 after a visit to Canada, I then went back to Canada a month later for a funeral and was admitted again. My B2 expired Sept 24 2024.
"By 2016 my husband and I had a thriving business, two dogs and a house. I started to get more nervous that if I visited Canada that I may not be able to return to my home so for about 7 years I didn't."
The intent was to visit my mother however it turned out differently as life sometimes does. I wouldn't want anyone to read my post and think that my intent was to stay permanently. That was my bad phrasing. I tried to find the address to send my concurrent filing to on the USCIS site and failed to find it. Can someone point me in the right direction please?
@EmilyW I was not asked if I was living with anyone at the border. At the Canadian/US land border they mostly just scan a Canadian citizens passport and waive them through.
