Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

You can start by consulting a licensed immigration attorney. So far, you haven't provided any information to even guess about your status and eligibility.

If you�d like to schedule a confidential telephone or email legal consultation, need advice or help, please let me know and I�d be glad to help you. Contact email address: Attorney [@] law-visa-usa.com or LubaSmal [@] yahoo.com . I offer legal consultations and can assist in matters of the U.S. federal immigration law to clients from all 50 States and internationally.

Note: The above response is provided for legal information purposes only and should not be considered a legal advice; it doesn�t create an attorney-client relationship. If you would like to request a follow-up confidential advice on your specific situation and regarding U.S.A. immigration-related issues, we can offer a paid consultation by telephone or email to clients from all States and globally. We speak English and Russian. Please visit our website http://www.law-visa-usa.com/contact_us.html for more details.

The first place to start is with a consultation with an immigration lawyer or research on your part. The problem with research is that it's in a vacuum with little else to compare it to, which is the same problem with a consultation. What you want is a consultation with a competent lawyer you trust.

The above is information and not legal advice. It does not form an attorney client relationship. For further information, feel free to write me at [email protected] or call 818 609 1953.

Sincerely,

Alice Yardum-Hunter, Attorney at Law

Hello:

Yes, there are many different ways people can obtain residency. We would need to see when you entered the U.S., how you entered, whether any petitions were ever filed for you (by whom, when and relationship), whether you had employment petitions filed for you, your education, work experience and whether you have children or a spouse and what their current condition is (among other things.)
