I've been getting mixed information from different attorneys and I just don't know who to believe and trust anymore. Seems like everyone has their own opinion. Here's the scenario - I am a naturalized US citizen. My dad is going through AOS and his interview is coming up. He entered the US without inspection but qualifies for AOS based on i245. He doesn't have parents or spouse with legal status. The only one with legal status is me- his daughter. Would he qualify for waiver for helping bring me to the US illegally as a child ? He didn't 'smuggle' anyone other than immediate family being his child.

Our attorney mentioned possibly needing to file a waiver if this is brought up during interview and we assumed he COULD apply for it if needed. But some attorneys are saying he does NOT qualify for waiver through a us citizen child because such waiver doesn't exist anymore.

Please someone help me and advise if he qualifies or not. If for some reason he doesn't qualify, then what happens? Would he go into removal proceedings? (No criminal convictions at all)

Just trying to get some feedback so I can know what to expect because I'm stressing for my dad!!

My parents have been residing in the US without status and are currently in the process of AOS. They have a i245 that allows them to adjust their status in the US. I am their naturalized US citizen child and I petitioned for them. My dad received his EAD in July and AP was denied because he did not enter with inspection. He just got notice for his interview and the attorney said theres a 'chance' the officer might require them to file for a waiver because they brought us (myself and siblings) to the US illegally as children. I'm trying to understand the likelihood of this being the case. I'm assuming they check status for all the children listed in the application and theyll see we're all on DACA and I'm naturalized meaning I wasn't born here which might be how they find this out. Of course we're hoping and praying this isn't the case because my parents have been waiting for this moment for over 30 yrs.

I'm hoping since they already scheduled interview that they won't ask for a waiver ? Or is it normal for them to make you go to interviews just to deny you and say you're inadmissable and need a waiver ?

Im also hearing that this waiver isn't even an option even if you smuggled your immediate family such as children.

Anyone has experience with this at all ? Thanks in advance!

I have on going Marriage based green card application (I-485 & I-131) in process and I have approved I-765 (Green Card EAD).

Does an approved GC EAD cancel my active H-1B Visa? Not allowing to travel outside USA

I filed for a concurrent application with I-130, I-485 & I-131 in Nov 2022 and I currently hold a H-1B visa valid until October 2024

Can I travel to India and reenter USA with my H-1B visa? When I have a pending I-485 application with the USCIS.

Has anyone travelled outside United States with a pending I-485 application?

Hello
Here is my timeline
I-485 Interview done (Feb 15 2022 Atlanta FO)
Noid (Feb 23 2022. Fraud and Misrepresentation. Ask to file I-601 and additional financial documents, I-140 Based)
I-601 Submitted (May 16 2022)
I-601 Approved ( July 31 2023)
July 2 Online status changed to "Ready to schedule interview"
July 7 Received Cancellation notice for the interview that I already attended. Feb 15 2022
July 21 Received interview scheduled notice for September 26
According to attorney it could be an error. USCIS might wanted to cancel current interview but instead cancelled last one. But need to attend unless receive official cancellation notice.
Anyone with similar experience

Thank you

We will schedule your interview and send you a notice. Please follow any instructions in the notice. If you move, go to www.uscis.gov/addresschange to give us your new mailing address.

If your case status indicates that you are currently in this step, you have either been scheduled for an interview or are in line to be scheduled for an interview. The amount of time your application will remain in this step will vary by office and is largely determined by the number of cases ahead of yours. The interview notice will have specifics about time, location and anything you will need to bring to your interview. If your application remains pending beyond our normal processing times (as shown below) please contact our national customer service center at 1-800-375-5283. Please note that not every application/applicant will require an interview. In some instances, an interview is required by regulation and others an interview is requested because USCIS has determined that this is the most efficient means to determine eligibility. For a naturalization application the interview will include your taking the required English and/or Civics tests (unless exempt or waived).
