Frequently Asked Questions
A Summerlin immigration attorney can assist with: family-based immigration petitions (I-130), employment-based visas (H-1B, L-1, O-1), green card applications (I-485 adjustment of status), naturalization (N-400), DACA renewals, asylum and refugee claims, removal defense in Las Vegas Immigration Court, and Consular Processing. Las Vegas has a large immigrant population and experienced immigration attorneys serving the Summerlin area.
If you are married to a U.S. citizen, you are classified as an 'immediate relative' with no visa number wait. The process involves filing an I-130 petition, completing an I-485 adjustment of status (if inside the U.S.), medical examination, and an interview at USCIS Las Vegas Field Office. The process typically takes 12–24 months. A Summerlin immigration attorney can guide you through the process and prepare you for the interview.
If you receive a Notice to Appear (NTA) in removal proceedings, you have the right to be represented by an attorney (at your own expense). The Las Vegas Immigration Court (EOIR) handles removal cases for Summerlin residents. You must appear at all hearings or risk an in-absentia removal order. A Summerlin immigration attorney should be contacted immediately — many removal cases have defenses including cancellation of removal, asylum, and voluntary departure.
DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) status is subject to ongoing litigation. Current DACA recipients can renew their status, but new initial applications have been on hold since 2017. Summerlin DACA recipients should consult with an immigration attorney before any international travel, criminal issues, or life changes that could affect their status. A Summerlin immigration attorney stays current on DACA policy changes.
