Our second set of five Things You MUST Know about Immigration:
1. You MUST know that staying out of the United States with a green card for more than six months may make you inadmissible, because it mean that you are no longer living permanently in the U.S.
2. You MUST know that you can’t use a visitors visa to live or work in the United States. A visitors visa means exactly that – you are visiting and only visiting. You can’t come for six months, then leave for a few weeks, and expect to be allowed back right after that for another six months.
3. You MUST know that if you’re late for an appointment at USCIS, your interview can be cancelled.
4. You MUST know that if you are in the United States without status for over one year, do not travel on advance parole (although USCIS will issue you an advance parole document).
5. You MUST know that failure to show up for Removal/Deportation on the date issued by what’s known as a Bag and Baggage Letter(a letter sent to you giving you a date to show up for Deportation) may result in an immigration warrant being issued for your arrest.
