Solutions for problems arising while you are outside the U.S.

Your Green Card could be taken away because you “abandoned” your residence

Many holders of “Green Cards” don’t seem to know that they have been granted the card only on the condition that they actually have a domicile in the U.S. Having a domicile means that the major focus of your life, such as work, residence, etc. needs to be in the U.S.

If you spend a long time abroad or travel more than usual you might have your “Green Card” lifted. Normal trips for vacation or business are no problem, but if you need to be abroad for more than 6 months or more than a few times a year, you should obtain a consultation. In certain cases permission for longer absences can be granted.

We can advise you how to keep your green card or how to regain your status.

Your visa has been denied or you have been turned away at an airport or border

The immigration law lists quite a number of factors that can make a traveler “inadmissible” to the United States. Among them are a criminal record, health reasons, former immigration violations, and security reasons. Non-immigrants also have to show that they have no intend to immigrate to the U.S. If you have reason to believe that you may be inadmissible, you should contact us before you apply for a visa or travel to the U.S. so we can find a solution. Often we can obtain a waiver or other relief.
