USCIS Implements Help HAITI Act of 2010
| Green Card Through the Help Haiti Act of 2010 |
On December 9, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Help Haitian Adoptees Immediately to Integrate Act of 2010 (Help HAITI Act of 2010). This new law will make it possible for certain Haitian orphans paroled into the United States to become lawful permanent residents (LPR) of the United States and get green cards. Applications to get a green card under this law may be filed at any time on or before December 9, 2013.
Mandated poverty line
Question details
What is mandated poverty line? I want to petition for my husband, can my father sponsor him financially if I do not have enough income to support my husband? My father and me are both permanent residents.
Here are the poverty guidelines http://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty/index.shtml
Your father can co-sponsor (file an affidavit of support) along with you.
Working outside USA
Question details
Is it possible for me to work outside the US (for the same company that I work for now) while on green card? My company has an office in India, and I have to travel to India for family reasons. I was planning to work in India for some time, and then come back in about a year and half and apply for citizenship. I have lived in the US for about 3 years on my green card now.
It is possible. Look into both I-131and N-470 filing through a lawyer.
Green card and overstay
Question details
My dad has a green card and went back home over 2 years ago. He is now trying to come back after being away from the US for 2 years. I was told by some people that if he stayed over a year outside the US they will not let him back in to the US even though he has a Green Card. Can you please tell me if this is true, or can I just get him a ticket and fly him back to the US?
It is highly unlikely that he will be allowed into USA.
Our office works regularly and closely with the Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna, PC, with both H1B and Permanent Resident applications. We do not have any complaints at all -- our case managers are smart, fast, conscientious, polite, and very pleasant to work with. We treasure them! I myself have worked mainly with Fran Fisher and Heather Riddick, and to a lesser degree with Anna Baker. I don't know how we could speak more highly of them or of Mr. Khanna's law firm. We appreciate them greatly!
