Termination of Removal Proceedings for British Client in Dallas Texas

CASE: Termination of Removal Proceedings with an Approved I-130 Petition

CLIENT: British
LOCATION: Applicant (Dallas, TX area), EOIR (Los Angeles, CA)

Our client is from the United Kingdom who came to the U.S. on a visa waiver visitor in 2002. Soon after her entrance to the U.S., she filed for asylum in the United States.  However, her asylum application was denied by the immigration judge at the Los Angeles Immigration Court in October 2003. She appealed the Immigration Judge’s decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals and the BIA remanded her case to the Immigration Court in July 2009. Her case was administratively closed by the immigration judge in August 2014.  

Our client married her U.S. citizen husband in December 2013. In August 2014, her husband filed an I-130 petition for her, and this petition was approved in November 2016. In January 2017, she contacted our office to seek legal assistance for the representation of her removal proceedings, termination of removal proceedings, and her adjustment of status application with the USCIS.

In October 9, 2017, our office filed a request to Motion to Re-Calendar and terminate proceedings with an attached I-485 application and its supporting documents to the Los Angeles Immigration Court. Eventually, the Immigration Judge granted the Motion to terminate without prejudice on October 17, 2017. Now, she can file his I-485 adjustment of status application to USCIS to obtain her green card.
