A citizen of Cameroon, who had been a permanent resident of the United States since 1995, left the U.S. in 2012 and returned around 2019 after an extended absence without advance parole. Upon re-entry, the client’s green card was seized by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. The client engaged Babila Law, LLC for assistance. We successfully got the case terminated without prejudice, resulting in the reinstatement of the client’s green card.

An elderly client from Cameroon entered the United States in February 2002 but did not apply for asylum until 2018, well beyond the one-year deadline. The client had a valid and compelling reason for the delay, which the Baltimore Immigration Court acknowledged. Babila Law LLC worked with this Client and the court granted her asylum in 2021.

A client, previously banned for life from entering the United States due to a sponsor’s submission of fraudulent documentation during a student visa application, later married a U.S. citizen. Although USCIS approved the I-130 petition and verified the legitimacy of the marriage, the State Department refused to issue a visa due to the client’s inadmissibility. We prepared a successful waiver application for USCIS, allowing the client to travel to the United States and become a lawful permanent resident.

In 2020, we represented a client who identifies as bisexual. She was previously married to a U.S. citizen woman who filed an I-130 petition on her behalf. After filing, the couple encountered marital issues, leading to the petitioner withdrawing the I-130 petition. USCIS accepted the withdrawal. The client later remarried, this time to a man. Although USCIS approved the new I-130, they denied her green card application citing ineligibility under section 204(c) of the Immigration Nationality Act. We were hired to handle the appeal, arguing that USCIS misinterpreted case law. We demonstrated that USCIS failed to provide clear and convincing evidence of marriage fraud, resulting in our client receiving her 10-year green card.
