NEW Harsh No Bond Decision

10/26/2026

💍 Marriage to a U.S. citizen can create a path to a green card, but a marriage certificate does not automatically guarantee approval.

Before filing for adjustment of status, couples should understand whether the foreign spouse is actually eligible to apply from inside the United States.

Important questions include:

✓ How did the immigrant spouse enter the U.S.?
✓ Was the person inspected, admitted, or paroled?
✓ Is there any prior removal order?
✓ Were there previous visa or immigration filings?
✓ Could unlawful presence or misrepresentation be an issue?
✓ Is a waiver potentially required?

⚖️ A completely genuine marriage can still face immigration problems because of the applicant’s previous history.

USCIS may review old visa applications, prior petitions, border records, previous marriages, and statements made in earlier immigration cases.

One common mistake is filing I-130 and I-485 without first identifying issues that may later appear during the interview or adjudication.

🇺🇸🗽 Before You File N-400: 3 Things to Check Before Applying for U.S. Citizenship

Reaching your three-year or five-year green card anniversary does not automatically mean you should file for naturalization immediately. Before submitting Form N-400, it is important to review your full history and make sure there are no issues that could affect eligibility.

First, review your travel history. USCIS looks at both physical presence and continuous residence, and longer or frequent trips outside the United States can create problems even if you have held a green card for the required number of years.

Second, review your legal and tax history. Arrests, dismissed cases, sealed records, unpaid taxes, support obligations, voting issues, and other matters may need careful analysis before filing.

Third, review the immigration filings that led to your Green Card. Naturalization requires USCIS to confirm that you were lawfully admitted for permanent residence, so prior applications, inconsistencies, or unresolved issues can become important during the N-400 process.

In my latest article, I explain the three checks every applicant should complete before filing N-400 and how careful preparation can help prevent avoidable surprises at the citizenship interview.

New York Immigration Lawyer: New 14-Day Asylum Evidence Rule: Don't Miss This Deadline! 🚨

10/26/2026

⚠️ Receiving a Notice to Appear does not automatically mean you will be deported.

Removal proceedings are serious, but depending on your immigration history and circumstances, legal defenses may still be available.

Possible strategies can include:

✓ Asylum or withholding of removal
✓ Cancellation of Removal
✓ Adjustment of Status
✓ Immigration waivers
✓ Challenging the government’s allegations
✓ Motions to reopen
✓ BIA appeals

⚖️ One of the first steps should be carefully reviewing the Notice to Appear.

Dates, manner of entry, immigration history, criminal allegations, or even the legal charge itself may need closer examination.

Never miss a hearing. Keep your address updated with EOIR, preserve your immigration records, calendar every deadline, and begin preparing evidence early.

One major mistake is assuming that a pending USCIS application automatically stops the Immigration Court case.

With 18 years of immigration law experience, attorney Alena Shautsova represents clients in removal proceedings, appeals, motions, asylum matters, and deportation defense.

💬 If you are already in Immigration Court, do you know what defenses may be available in your case?

📘 A waiver is not automatic—the right legal strategy and strong evidence can be critical.

📲 Watch now to understand whether a waiver may help you overcome an immigration obstacle.
