Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Re: Ten year Bar consequences

Dear Inquirer:

If you were unlawfully present for more than one year and then departed the US, you are inadmissible for a period of 10 years.

I recommend that you email [email protected] or visit www.hanlonlawgroup.com if you would like to schedule an appointment for a confidential consultation to discuss this matter further.

Re: Ten year Bar consequences

This matter is complex in how you left, for example did a judge get involved and you should not try to do it yourself so you should get an attorney to discuss your options. If you are located in Southern California, you can email me your contact info, so we can discuss your particular situation. There is no charge for consultation.

Re: Ten year Bar consequences

Yes, it is an issue, however unlawful presence might be waivable under what's known as a 212(d)(3) waiver.

I would be happy to help you out if you contact me offline. Check me out at http://www.yardum-hunter.com, fill out a consultation request there at http://www.yardum-hunter.com/Main/Consultation.asp or email me at [email protected]. Until then, please don't rely on this as legal advice.

Re: Ten year Bar consequences

If you haven't been out of the U.S. for 10 years, it will be an issue if you try to apply for an F-1 or any visa for that matter, if you had unlawful presence for over a year.
