  Well you jugoslawia has not existed since 1990  . iT split into 7 state independent countries. I'm not a citizen of Serbia though I still have an original  yugoslavian  passport with a port of entry  .. Because I was not there and I never registered as a Serbian citizen .It took a few months to search and nope i'm not a Serbian citizen. because I was born in Kosovo but lived in Serbia all my life . When the Serbian military withdrew from Kosovo  all documents were gone... I searched not Kosovo not  Serbia has me in their citizens file.

 

 Yes, that's what I think .I need to talk to my wife about this  again .

List You  helped me . I just hate when LAwyers tell me  don't worry you will be Ok and slap me with a $3,000 bill to start the process again .

 

Did you reach out to the diplomatic mission for your place of birth? You have a passport.  

 

Why did you wait decades to fix that? Why decades to adjust status?  

 

You'll need to put much more efforts in finding solutions if you want results. 

Best of luck to you.

Right, and as I said above you paying child support and alimony is even more evidence that you're separated. 

 

So no, you can't use the marriage to try and adjust, you need to find another option. If you are genuinely stateless (although you say you've had a Serbian passport above, so that seems to contradict that?) then you could explore some kind of refugee status with a really good lawyer. If not, then work, or waiting 8 years or so to get a green card via your child, seem to be the only options, but neither are going to mean you can stay now so you need to get your statelessness/citizenship sorted asap. There are charities that can help with that side of things, for example - https://www.unhcr.org/us/about-unhcr/who-we-protect/stateless-people

 

Best of luck. 

Hi , Yes I tried. 5 years ago  I was in contact with the Serbian Embassy in New York.. they were very nice to search for my citizenship but there is no evidence that I'm a Serbian Citizen . . Also contacted Belgrade which also could not find me in Serbian citizen files. 

I was born in Kosovo but all my life I lived in Belgrade, Serbia.. I was born In Kosovo  but when The Military withdrew ( I guess you know about the civil war)  they burned and replaced birth certificates, Pension Labor and all important documents.. I asked the Kosovo Embassy and they also stated that I need to contact Jagodina (a city in Serbia) they said I have to be present and it will take a long time to find if they are the because after 15 years after wrr  most documents are destroyed. about what the documents should be.  Kosova is saying i need few people who reside in Kosovo be present there and file for Kosovar residency and citizenship. 

 

   By the way I spoke with my wife which is still fully by the law. My wife and we are talking about reconciling to get together again..

I have a meeting with one very good immigration Lawyer .. will see what she will say .

Won't work - overstay is not forgiven in employment based cases AND you'd have to interview at an embassy overseas - that plus you will get a ban for 10 years. 

 

Your only option is the USC child - when they reach 21 and can petition for you. 

[Crazy Cat 44,858]

Another big issue, imo,  is that the head OF DHS says anyone detained and deported might never be able to return to the US. But if you self deport after this much time, you get a ban. This is a very difficult situation.

If a waiver is needed a child is not a Qualifying Relative

No it does not.  You must meet one of the requirements of eligibility to file AOS 

 

unless you have a USC child who is  over 21 years of age, I see no basis for adjusting  status  to be found in the info you have given us

 

 You say your daughter is 15 so that option is out 

You say you are separated from your wife and living separated lives .. so that spousal option is out 

 

You are out of legal status and out of authorised stay. Not a good place to be in .. your immigration record is not a good one. 

what if i get back with my wife and we just cintinue life as a married coupkle ??

You are going to give up your job and move back, seem to remeber you are on opposite sides of the Continent.

If that happened, you could try to adjust status through your wife (if she agrees).  You would have to convince USCIS that you are in a bona fide marriage.  That might be an uphill battle, but you could try.

If it's genuine and you can prove it, then that's one thing. But if you are only doing it to stay in the US then that would be immigration fraud, and could result in a permanent ban, or your GC/citizenship being taken away even if it's discovered years/decades later. So make sure you're doing it for the right reasons.
