As explained before, you are not getting a Tourist Visa anytime soon. Also to clarify there is no "fight" on visitors visas.
Only if you are immigrating and with the help of a lawyer the possibility of a waiver will be possible.
Sorry for the redundancy on "the possibility of a waiver will be possible" 😂😂😂
Didn't realize it until it was too late to correct.

well i think i should try for a tourist visa,but its best i get immigration lawyer my case complicated 😕voluntary departure 2012 /10 year ban ,waiver approved ,got married 2015 to u.s citizen didnt work out we are separated now
wonder how it will go for me if i try for tourist visa ..
As said by SalishSea, lawyer for a tourist visa is a waste of money, tourists visas are a privilege not a right so if your case is so complex as you said probably the consular officer will think the same, play safe and deny it. If there is still a chance only way to find out is applying.
Good luck

It doesn't hurt to try.
I would base the expedite request on emotional support for your first pregnancy.
If they do that it will be denied.
Emotional support has never been a valid reason to get a tourist visa as far as I know plus child and even adult care is work.
This strategy will backfire at the applicant always.

If the departure has been recorded then there is nothing else they need to do. This is usually done via the flight manifest from the airlines.
Nothing to be done on their side.

This young lady is currently a student and enrolled into school and still has one year of study left, her family and friends are all in the DR. She will be returning!
Anyone know how difficult it will be for you to get her tourist visa? Is the wait time currently listed on travel.state.gov accurate? Is it truly taking that long to get an appointment?
I have seen young girls with more than school, family & friends suddenly deciding that they fell in love and want to get married. The consular officers have seen it too often that it will be an uphill battle based on her current situation.
There is nothing you can do to change the outcome of a visa interview, having a romantic interest with your son and having so much support from you and the pastor etc will do more harm than good based on my experience.
If she is completely involved with the church and doing voluntary work there are avenues and visa types that the church can sponsor, this is a more formal and costly process but it is also subject to the same rules of establishing not immigrant intent at the interview.
-
The reasons to enter the US are fine but what she must be prepared to show are the reasons to go back home. To the majority of CO those carry more, much more weight than anything.

The chances are -0%, as explained before he is "inadmissible" regardless the type of visa, an alternative to be together is you moving there with him in the meantime. He has to wait 1 year to get medicals redone but of course they have to come "clean" to avoid the same result.
Good luck on your process.

I deduct that by having friends taking care or his personal belongings the USC spouse is long gone out of the picture. Also, the deportation details can change the outcome of a visa interview. The OP should provide more details if he is willing to.
-
If I was the spouse....I would be the one running out. Immigration is not a kid's game specially when the things you said might affect the other person permanently.
What will happen next time you get even more angry? Only God knows.
Good luck to both of you, hope things work out the best for both sides.

How does it shows on your Uscis account under “My Cases”?
-
If the "friends" have traveled all over the world it must be a huge family if they have a kid at each country they visit.
Some people like to play the system and then think they are smarter than the rest of the world....they would never settle in the US yet are willing to make the kid pay taxes for life....come on. 😆
I'll make it easier:
The OP is the "friend"
The "friend" is pregnant again and want to extend her personal US Citizens army.

Yes, but 8 USC 1445 says this, my interpretation is she qualifies the same as the rest of applicants that file 90 days prior to their requirement. I don't see any exceptions of the 90 days early filling rule.
§1445. Application for naturalization; declaration of intention
(a) Evidence and form
An applicant for naturalization shall make and file with the Attorney General a sworn application in writing, signed by the applicant in the applicant's own handwriting if physically able to write, which application shall be on a form prescribed by the Attorney General and shall include averments of all facts which in the opinion of the Attorney General may be material to the applicant's naturalization, and required to be proved under this subchapter. In the case of an applicant subject to a requirement of continuous residence under section 1427(a) or 1430(a) of this title, the application for naturalization may be filed up to 3 months before the date the applicant would first otherwise meet such continuous residence requirement.

English Language Exemptions
Some applicants are exempt from the English language requirements when applying for U.S. Citizenship. If an applicant is over the age of 50, has a valid Green Card, and has lived in the U.S. for 20 years, at the time of the application, he/she is exempt from the English test requirement. However, must still take the civics test. This is commonly called the "50/20" exception. This is also true for applicants over the age of 55, with a valid Green Card, and who have lived in the U.S. for 15 years. Also known as the "55/15" exception. Applicants who fit any of the two profiles may take the civics test in their native language only if they do not understand spoken English well enough to take the exam in English and must bring an interpreter to the interview. Those applicants who are over the age of 65 with at least 20 years of legal permanent residence at the time of filing will be afforded special consideration about the civics requirement.

Good morning guys, so this is the situation:
My mother in law is applying to take the civics part in her native language, she is 75 years old and the 15 years as green card holder anniversary was on December 5 2020, we filled the application online on October 18 taking advantage of the 90 days early filling. She just had her interview and the officer refused to give the test in her native language arguing that she didn't qualify for it. According to her she should have filled after December 5.
Is the officer right?
Thanks in advance

When you are at the interview try telling the officer this:
”If you don’t have the experience or authority with these please leave me and my waiver alone and refrain from making any comments”
It might work wonders I bet.

You have quite an attitude for someone that is coming to a public forum looking for free information which by the way is being served by one of our most experienced and respected members.
I hope that you cannot stand me either so you let your tongue free again....maybe I’ll get lucky.

However my almost 15 years of paid taxes and all what that I provided to this country won't be no "Refund" and that is what it's called a Broken immigration system where no other first world country would let this happened for so many years instead when an immigrated person puts together their documents if they don't match the requirements for the country they simplify and since the beginning say no and go home...
In another first world country they could also have taken you into custody right there during the interview and put you in a plane same day yet until this day you are free, at home and with chances of fixing your own mistakes.
Yes, the immigration system is broken but not in the sense that you imply.Be Greatful and take care.

To be honest, this pandemic has been used as an excuse by some people to use a visa as a green card. Not sure if this is the case here but I keep reading people overstaying and using it as an all around excuse to justify overstaying for a huge amount of time. There has been ways for nationals of any country to go back home.....as long as they want to. Just saying.
At least there are consequences for those that try to play the system. -
Your biggest battle would not be renewing the visa but to get it in first place.
2 Obstacles1-Embassy Closed for Tourist Visa processing
2- Slim to none chances of approval due to Dominican Republic being a high fraud country and a pending petition.
These immigration processes are hard because of waiting times and separation but it is what it is.
I had a shoplifting case and is planning to apply for a US visa. Please help! :(
