Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Addressing the I-245(i) issue - yes it seems you are covered under this as long as the Labor Cert. was approvable when filed (in other words not frivolous).

Once divorced then you would fall into the 1st preference category and would have to wait for a visa number to become current which would take 4-6 years.

You can contact my office for a free consultation.

Hi,

You appear covered under sec. 245(i) even if the labor certification or immigrant petition was ultimately denied.

Your mother can sponsor you in the family first preference category once you are divorced. You should ultimately be able to adjust status within the U.S. once a visa becomes available. Additional information is here: www.h1b1.com/sponsor.htm and www.h1b1.com/visawaiting.htm

Your mother can sponsor you in the family first preference category. Once your petition is approved, you can adjust status in the United States when your dates become current as you would be covered under 245(i).
