Enterline and Partners Featured Clients on Successfully Naturalizing as a U.S. Citizen

Enterline and Partners is pleased to feature its clients, Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Schroeder on a successful case outcome.

In mid-2020 during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, Mr. and Mrs. Schroeder were referred to our office regarding their desire to immigrate to the United States. Mr. Schroeder, an American expatriate, had been living in Vietnam for several years. While Mrs. Schroeder had a B-1/B-2 Visitor Visa enabling her to travel back and forth to the United States to visit family and friends, they decided it was time to immigrate to the United States for themselves and their daughter.

Our immigration attorneys filed a Form I-130 Petition for Alien Relative with supplemental documentation with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”). After USCIS approved the Form I-130 Petition, the case was sent to the National Visa Center (“NVC”) where our attorneys filed the necessary documents to continue the visas application processing. After the NVC documentarily qualified the case and sent the file to the U.S. Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City, Mrs. Schroeder completed her medical examination and attended her immigrant visa interview. Although she was a 221g Notice of Administrative Processing, our attorneys responded to the U.S. Consulate which resulted in Mrs. Schroeder being issued an IR-1 Immigrant Visa.

After living in the United States for more than two (2) years, our office contacted Mr. and Mrs. Schroeder to inform them that she may be eligible to file for naturalization to become a U.S. citizen and we would be happy to further represent her. After receiving their approval to assist, our office filed Mrs. Schroeder’s Form N-400, Application for Naturalization with USCIS. A few months later, Mrs. Schroeder was sworn in as a U.S. citizen at the USCIS Field Office in Baltimore, Maryland.

Our office would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude and congratulations to the Schroeder’s! It is our great pleasure to assist our client’s over many years to achieve their American dream.

What is a K-3 Visa and How is it Different from a CR-1/ IR-1 Visa?

When researching U.S. family visa application options to the U.S., some couples may inquire on what the K-3 visa is and whether it is the fastest U.S. visa for family members based on marriage. Defining the K-3 Visa A K-3 visa is a non-immigrant visa issued to a foreign spouse married to a U.S. citizen. Like a K-1 visa, a K-3 visa is also filed using a Form I-129F Petition for Alien Fiancé(e) (“Form I-129F”). It is intended to shorten the separation period between the married couple allowing the foreign spouse to enter the United States while awaiting approval of his or her Form I-129F and subsequent immigrant visa. Differences Between K-3 and CR-1/IR-1 Visas Unlike a CR-1/IR-1 U.S. visa in which the foreign spouse would arrive in the United States as an immigrant and be granted lawful permanent resident status (“Green Card”) upon arrival, a K-3 visa requires the

Priority Processing for Investments Made In Rural Areas

The EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (“RIA”) establishes priority processing for rural areas, ensuring that Form I-526/I-526E Petitions (“Petitions”) filed for business or projects in these areas are expedited. Under this provision, Petitions for EB-5 investments in rural areas shall be prioritized in processing and adjudication, allowing investors and project developers in these areas to benefit from faster review times and reduced delays. Any Rural or High-unemployment area identified by the Secretary of Homeland Security is considered a Targeted Employment Area (“TEA”). Rural areas are those located outside the geographic boundaries of a metropolitan statistical area and outside cities or towns with a population of 20,000 or more, based on the most recent decennial census. This classification is to encourage EB-5 investments into target areas that are genuinely rural and in need of economic stimulation. Priority processing for rural areas supports the EB-5 program’s broader goal of stimulating
