From Misunderstandings and Medical Challenges to Citizenship Victory: How Cambridge Immigration Law Helped an Immigrant Overcome Hurdles to Achieve US Citizenship
Almost two years ago, a mother of an adult son called our office desperate for help. Her son recently attended a US Citizenship interview. Shortly after the interview, he received a Notice of Intent to Revoke his previously renewed and approved marriage-based green-card. Her son (the applicant for US citizenship) was shocked by the accusations in the Notice. USCIS accused her son of lying to get his green card, lying Read More
What happens after my immigrant visa interview at the US Embassy?
Congratulations! You had your immigrant visa interview! As you know, the immigrant visa interview is the last step outside the US before you enter the USA to become a lawful permanent resident who holds a US “green card.” About two weeks after your embassy interview, the embassy will return your passport with an "immigrant visa" in the passport by whatever means your particular embassy uses. If you have not received Read More
Why letters from family and friends are key to Marriage-Based Green Card Application
All of our clients submit letters of support from family and friends when we represent them on their marriage-based green card applications. We provide a short draft that you can use to help your family and friends write letters. In fact, you can write the letters for your family and friends, as long as you tell them that they should review and edit the entire letter before they sign it. The letters will state how Read More
Why you do not need a joint bank account to be approved for a marriage-based green card
You don’t need a joint back account to win a marriage-based green card. The only thing that you absolutely need to prove your marriage is a marriage certificate. After that, you need to provide documents that paint a picture of your life using lots and lots of paper. We have a great list of 99 documents to submit with your Marriage-based green card application that you should submit with your application at this Read More
Why your friend’s spouse can apply for a green card after entering as a tourist, but your spouse can’t.
For starters, let us say that US immigration law is so confusing! We often meet with potential clients who are convinced that their case is just like their friends’ case. Due to a small difference in facts, the legal cases are drastically different. In the situation of one person entering as a tourist and applying for a green card, that will work if the person who entered as a tourist planned to return to the home Read More
Fiance Visa to Citizenship
Our client of many years recently got their Citizenship Application approved! When they came to us, they were a newly engaged couple who had experienced some complications with their Fiancé Visa application. They decided that they couldn’t wait to get married so we filed an I-130 instead. Once their application was approved, we worked with them on the National Visa Center applications and prepared them for the Read More

Deadlines for I-751 Joint Petitions and I-751 Waiver Petitions
Renewing your conditional green card (or “removing the conditions on your residence”) requires you to file Form I-751 with your US Citizen spouse**. You must file Form I-751 in the 90 days before the expiration of your conditional card. Do not file it early–it may get rejected. If you file late (that is, after the expiration of your conditional green card), you will need to submit an explanation of why you filed late Read More
Renewing your conditional green card when no longer living with spouse
Renewing your conditional green card (or “removing the conditions on your residence”) requires you to file Form I-751 with your spouse. If you are no longer living together, your spouse can still support your application to renew your conditional green card by signing Form I-751 and providing information and documents for the application. If you are separated, you should explain to USCIS what happened with the Read More
