Legal Answers
- Q. Can I apply for naturalization if my green card expired 2 months ago instead of renewing the green card?
- A: Usually that is not a problem as you remain a resident despite the expiration of the card. Some officers will at least want to see an I-90 receipt, but given the long adjudication times, some are more understanding.
- Q. Switch from L1 (Blanket) Visa to Green Card/Permanent Resident and then on to Citizen
- A: If you are a US citizen, then the fastest and safest way for him to obtain residence will be through marriage.
- Q. My girlfriend is a UK citizen that is immune compromised. What happens if she overstays her ESTA due to COVID19?
- A: She can apply for satisfactory departure through U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Requirements are on their website.
