i think also there was a period 7 years ago the Dream Act allowed for ewi's but no longer

My wifes I-130 was approved back in 2002 and so that is not an issue now, My wife arrived in the country legally and filled her assylum claim before her stay expired. We got married in December of 2001 and the lawyer we had at the time tried to continue my wifes assylum claim and my petition at the same time, the assylum judge ordered the lawyer to cancel one of the cases and hne decided to cancel the I-130 and continue with the assylum claim. Then the judge denied my wifes assylum case and advised us to hire a new lawyer and file the I-130 which we did and the judge approved that and dismissed the assylum case and allowed us to move on with an I0-485. That is when our problems started, the lawyer submitted the incorrect documents and when we found that out we fired him and hired another lawyer, that new lawyer filed a 1 step application when he should have filed a 2 step application, from 2002 until around june of 2007 my wife had never recieved anything from USCIS regarding an appointment, when we moved I spoke with another lawyer and he got the case transfered to Illinois and within a month my wife got her work permit notice, When she got the notice to travel to Chicago for her hearing I could not attend because I am on call with my job 24 hours a day and can not travel more then 50 miles from my work site and thats why I could not go and the lawyer did send the request to change the venue but part of my wifes file is still in New York and the other half is in St. Louis, the notice was mailed from the New York Office. We have been told by USCIS, the lawyer and the local senator that the I-130 is still valid and that does not need to be sent in again but we do have to file an I-485 but again no one seems to know what will happen to my wife if we file it even though the old case was officialy closed due to abandoment.

See what I mean? This story is complete nonsense as explained. Maybe he did not explain it correctly. Who knows. But it makes no sense whatsoever; right?

For the slow learners (ie. Stinky Foot Shelley):

Sometime before 2001 Wife files bogus asylum claim; She gets put into removal proceedings; this should trigger a bar to I-130 being approved unless she leaves country for 2 years

Now he changed his story and says that the asylum case was still ongoing and she was not in deportation when they got married; HUH?

Married 2001; they continue to proceed with an asylum claim that has 80 % chance of being rejected rather than doing AOS (I-485) based on marriage with 100 % chance of being approved !

I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative Approved in 2002); but you normally file AOS with I-130 so what is happening here ?

He spells asylum incorrectly repeatedly. Now if this guy has spent 5 years working on this, why would he be spelling this incorrectly?

Also he talks of a "local senator" ; I don't know what that means; a State Senator? Why would a State Senator be involved or any politician for that matter?

He discusses sending different applications all over the country.

Then the judge thing makes no sense; if you have a choice; asylum or marriage based; why would you try asylum; and did he cancel the I-130 and approve it or the asylum case; does this make one bit of sense?

Finally he says that he is SO IMPORTANT that he can not travel more than 50 miles from his job and he is so important that he is not allowed to take any vacation days or personal days (Wow he must have some job !) Makes no sense and indicates an exaggerrated sense of self importance and deception.

So is it any wonder that he chose the clown as his icon?

Get your story and your facts straight and then explain to us and do not lie. I think you are lying to us big time, to the immigration service and to America !

I think this guy got screwed by the lawyers. The fact the lawyer had his AOS dismissed in favor of the asylum is suspect. I don't think he realizes how serious this is. Buddy, your wife is about to be sent home on a boat and your toying with what few options you have left. Take a few days off from work. I make a hell of a lot more than you do and I have taken several days off from my business to get these sort of things taken care of for mine. Maybe he wants her sent back.

People usually do not switch lawyers unless the lawyers insist that their clients do not perjure themselves. I think that this is the case here. Something is going on and he is not being fully honest with us.

A lawyer with ethics that extend beyond their retainer? Not on this planet. Its possible if the lies are so blatent the lawyer can't cover them all without looking like a co-conspiritor.

If thats the case why bother posting here. The initial question sounded legit unless he wants to know what not to do to make sure she does get taken away.

You must have very sad life darkforce if you have nothing better to do other then come on here and post dumb *** replies to peoples questions, I bet your the kind of person that puts peanut butter on your nut sack and has your dog **** it off. in your case your mom should have listened to the doctor and aborted you. And you want to threaten to have me banned? how sad numb nuts you will never get rid of me.

See thr latent hostility come out when confronted with the truth?

Hey buddy

You better get moving on this one. Put a thread out to MOHAN . Perhaps he can help you.. he has helped a lot of people in these situations. I think he still pops in on the board, if not try him on british expats maybe

Just so you know, you are in deep . check out Shusterman for consultation. This is probably going to cost a lot at this point if you want to save your wife to be here

Good Luck

bottom line she lied to our embassy officials when she was applying for her visa, and then lied to our immigration officials when she arrived in the US and then, like most 'asylees' conjured up more lies trying to obtain asylum under false pretenses, then marries yet another village idiot (wow, the US apparently has no shortage of these double-digit IQ ****s) and now Mr. Village Idiot is trying to explain away all her lies and his lies, without benefit of a dictionary. Send her lying butt back to Indonesia...better yet, why don't you go with her?

It is possible for an IJ to grant status, but quite rare, there has to be a compelling reason.

But you have to be in Deportation proceedings to start with.
