Client: Adult Male U.S. Citizen Married to Somalian Citizen
Client’s Country of Origin: Somalia
Case Type: I-130 Petition for Relative, Fiancé or Orphan
Date of Application: May 21, 2014
Date of Approval: September 23, 2014
Date of Approval: September 24, 2014
Background:
Our U.S. citizen client retained us to secure immigration status for his wife. In addition to filing an I-130 petition for him, he wished to have us help them prepare for their upcoming interview.
Challenge:
Spousal immigration through marriage requires having to prove that the marriage is real and the result of mutual love and trust. Therefore, evidence gathering and documentation of family life together are important because there are fewer categories to prove compared to other types of cases. Our legal assistance can help direct your efforts to most efficiently collect evidence so that your loved one can stay in the U.S., free of concerns over status.
Action:
We helped our clients prove that their marriage was bona fide and the result of love and trust. That is, we helped them present their marriage, on paper documentation, to be real and authentic, just as those of other typical couples. After all, the best strategy against suspicion of fraud is to show authenticity.
Result:
One day after a successful interview, the immigration petition was approved.
