You need to explain what you mean. There is no “new trump law” that denies green card holders entry. No immigration officer can refuse entry to someone on a green card without a good reason (they stayed out too long thereby abandoning residence, they have a serious criminal conviction etc). Even then, the LPR can demand to be paroled into the US to have the case decided by an immigration judge. All you are doing here is contributing to panicky rumors designed to scare people for no good reason. 

I’m not trying to scare anyone. My husband asked me to find out what’s going on so that’s what I’m doing. 

Rejected by the immigration officer I guess, new trump laws

So my husband is a Nepali citizen holding a ten year green card. He said they heard in a news in Nepal that Nepal green card holders coming into the US are getting rejected? Just wondering if anyone knows something about this because he’s afraid to travel to Nepal next year. 

Hi everyone I’m new to this thread. I read that you must file 90 days before the 3 years as a LPR for the 400. My husband has been married to me 3 1/2 years. Is it too late for him to file? 

Yeah I called them twice and they said both times it was mailed but I never received. I hope they can make appointment for me since online says no appointments available.

Yes I know they have it because check was cleared and can see it was received online. 

So we sent in my husbands stuff to remove  his conditions back in November. We never received a receipt. I did an online inquiry and still didn’t receive a receipt. I’m wondering if the Minneapolis office does walk ins? Is it ever possible to get an appointment there or Fargo? I keep checking and it says no appointment available check tomorrow.

Affidavits are "nice to have" but not mandatory.  They are especially useful when there are unusual circumstances (red flags, no co-mingling of finances, etc.), but otherwise, it seems they are held in a lower priority than other evidence.

 

You are not required to have a cover letter, but a lot of people use them kind of as a "table of contents" to help explain what is in the packet itself.

 

Good luck on your journey!

Thank you!

I also didn’t do a cover letter 

Hi everyone, so I’m ready to send my package tmrw ahhh. I didn’t provide affadivits of people who know us so is that okay or is it really required? I did provide cards, pics, birth certificate, joint utility bills, tax returns, leases, bank statement and letter from bank saying it’s joint, and of course green card 

Should I put it all on one check or seperate? 

Thanks for your quick response . I feel better now

Hi everyone, has anyone here filed close to expiration date? I’m hoping to send it out oct 26-oct 29 and my spouses card expires nov 10. Do you think it will still be ok as long as they receive it before then? And also wondering do I send the $595 without the $85 biometrics fee and pay biometrics later if were called to do that? Thanks for the feedback

Hi I am just wondering.. I have read the guide on how to remove conditions and file for I751, but I am just confirming that the only things they need is the I751 form and evidence? The financial stuff like forms from the sponsor and the form asking about spouse's income, that we used in adjusting status is not required? I'm the U.S. citizen and thinking about going from working from full time to part time and also going back to school, so I just want to make sure I don't have to be making enough money in this time. TIA

I don't understand why you are asking about them working in the US.......

I know they cannot work but just figured I'd ask as I know nothing about this type of visa

If you want them to settle here in the States, you could petition them to become  permanent residents, then they could stay as long as they want.. 

I know but citizens cannot petitions for in laws

I guess I'm not understanding why it's for up to 5 yrs if they can only stay 6 months. Or they can come back but not til like a year later after they return to their country?

That is a risky plan.......

Yeah I'm not sure how this visa works so just trying to find out everything

you do not want them to stay for 6 months here. The maximum permitted stay is 6 months but if they max out their permitted stay, then they may have difficulty getting in next time

 

for example, if they stayed 6 months upon the first visit, then next time CBP may only grant them 30 days of temporary stay.

Ok I know they are scheduled to go back after 5 1/2 months

The validity of the visa is 5 years but doesn't mean you can stay for 5 years.

 

B1/B2 are usually given 6 months but could be shorter.

 

Obviously it is a tourist visa, you parents are foreign nationals with temporary status in the States. They must not work and are not eligible for any health insurance

 

They can stay for 6 months then go back to their country for like 6 months, then come back here for 6 months etc for up to 5 yrs?

The general rule of thumb is to stay out of country twice as long as in country on a tourist visa to avoid potential denial at POE. They are also only allowed a maximum of 6 months at a time... It will likely be viewed as them attempting to live in the US.

So if they stay 6 months then they need to stay in their country for one year, then come back for 6 months etc, is that right? 

Hi my parents in law have B1/B2 visa for 5 years and my husband thinks they need to go back to their country after 6 months then a couple months later come back to US and can stay for the rest of the time, is this true? Also is B1/B2 eligible for working or health insurance? Thank u

I wouldn't meet the poverty guidelines since I'm unemployed for about 4-6 months and assuming they wouldn't count the immigrants work income? I could just bring the joint sponsors info then? And ok will wait for green card to get the statement removed from ss

Do u need to get a new social security card after receiving the EAD?

My other question is: I'm taking some months off work and I'm the us citizen, our AOS is being processed.. is this going to be some problem in the future? I do have a joint sponsor
