Legal Question in Immigration Law in Oklahoma

Dear sir or Madam,

i got married to a woman who is an American citIizen. The marriage was in good faith. Unfortunately, the relationship did not last and we got a divorce. I have applied for adjustment of status as an abused spouse. A year later, i got a reponse from the INS that my application was denied because they believed she was married and did not get a divorce prior to our marriage. however, i have a document that was issued by the INS that reject that claim and states that she was single at the time of our marriage. please tell me what to do to reverse their decision.

sincerely,

Karim Nader

Motion to reopen

A motion to reopen must be prepared. This is a movement we need to unite and prepare all other measures and requests. Unless the motion to reopen is granted, the case can not proceed. Once the motion to reopen is filed, there are two possible outcomes. First, the motion could be granted. If this is the case, then we can enter into an agreement to represent the underlying issue. Otherwise, the motion be denied. If he refuses, then it must be challenged. In addition to the motion to reopen, a motion for stay is usually required so that there is no immediate enforcement of a future deportation order.
