I follow a page on facebook about immigration and someone posted a similar question to mine, Jude Law replied so i sent her a message.  she sent me some papers, price list and retainer agreement.

www.judelawoffice.com

I want to represent myself and do the relevant paperwork and gather evidence for my case.

I have a price from Jude Law LLC attorney of about $14,000 minus the costs of the filing papers and a $5,500 retainer fee but do not have the funds.

Me and my son got deported from America and received a 10 yr ban for overstaying.

I was wondering if you could help with which papers to file in which order.

I was arrested for domestic violence and the charges were dropped, I have the nolle prosequi paper from the court that states the case was dismissed.

What I understand is my husband has to file I-130 for me and my son, when at the interview we will be found inadmissible and then we file the I-601 waiver of inadmissibility.

I do not know your immigration story, if there is anyone that you know that is going through the same as me could you please point me in their direction.

thankyou

Stacey.

Went to the uscis website:

When should I not file form I-824

One of them is:

Do not file form I-824 with uscis if you are requesting further action on an application or petition that was denied, revoked, terminated or withdrawn.

I would like to use a lawyer, we have the money for the different papers to file for the inadmissibility papers, but not the lawyers costs 😞

I went on the uscis website and put in my receipt no it says:

Case was received

On dec 9th 2015 we received your form I-130 petition for alien relative receipt no- ......... And sent you the receipt notice that describes how we will process your case.

Please follow the instructions in that notice.  If you do not receive your receipt notice by Jan 8th on 2016 contact the uscis contact center at -......

On the I-797 notice of action I have:

Received date 12/09/2015

Notice date 07/14/2017

The above petition has been approved.  The petition indicates that the beneficiary is in the United States and wishes to apply for adjustment of status to that of a lawful permanent resident.

He or she should submit a copy of this notice, along with a form I-485, application to register permanent residence or adjust status.

He or she can obtain form I-485 from the uscis website at .

........ 

If the beneficiary decides to apply for an immigrant visa outside the united States based on this petition, you should file form I-824, application for action on an approved application or petition, to request that we send the petition to that console.  The NVC will then contact the beneficiary concerning further immigrant visa processing steps.

Thank you!

I have another question, I have the I-797 notice of action papers:

Case type I130 - petition for alien relative.

Type notice: Approval notice

Section: husband or wife of us citizen, 201b (b) INA

Type notice: Approval notice

Section: unmarried child (under age 21) of us citizen, 201(b) INA

Are they invalid? 

I have looked at IR1 and it says to file an I-130.

Okay Thank you both so much.

I will start to gather the correct forms, information and forms needed.

So I'm assuming my I-485 has been timed out.

I thought that I would still have to apply to remove the ban showing extreme hardship regardless of the status of the I-485?

Yes I do remember them sending a RFE which I sent more information but must have not been enough for them. I thought that I had researched enough and sent in the relivent papers.

Kept it alive? I thought that you had to reapply again once it had been refused.  

We own a house there, where I am now is very expensive to buy a house. 

He has family there, children, mum, dad, cousins.

Has my husband done anything?

I don't understand ?

Yes we have the approved I-130

I have researched a lot and was wondering if it would be a good idea to do this myself.

My I-485 was denied about 3 yrs ago.

Okay heres my story.

I went to the U.S. on Sept 2015 (from my home country the UK)with my son (who is now 15) to visit my fiance on a visa waiver. We got married on november 2015.  I applied I-485 and I-130.  Was refused due to lack of evidence, a year later my son and I were approved the I-797 petition of alien relative I-130.

In November 2019 I was arrested for domestic violence, the charges were dropped, I was bailed out but ICE detained me and I spent 2 months in jail while they got the paperwork to send me and my son back. 

I got deported on 17th of January 2020. As I overstayed on the visa waiver and wavered all my rights to a trial by using the visa waiver.

ICE gave me and my son papers just before we boarded the plane me and my son were given papers for a 10 year bar from returning to the U.S. 

I have messaged several lawyers asking for information on what papers I need to file to lift the 10 year bar, but have got a few different answers, some have said I need an I-601, and others saying an I-601 and I-212,  and of course quotes of around $7,500 to get the bar lifted.

I would very much appreciate any information on the papers needed, experience people here have had regarding the 10 year bar.

I have no criminal history in the U.S. or the UK.

Me and my husband are distraught at being apart and miss each other very much.
