Do You Need an Immigration Lawyer to Represent to File a K-1 Visa for Your Vietnamese Fiance?

A common question asked by potential clients is do you need an immigration lawyer to file a K-1 visa for your Vietnamese fiance? The short answer is no, you do not need a lawyer. However, having a lawyer represent you and your fiance through the process has advantages.

An immigration lawyer is a licensed professional.

Unlike visa companies or agencies that rely on non-lawyers, an immigration lawyer is board
certified in the United States and licensed to represent clients for immigration matters all over the world.

An immigration lawyer holds deep and thorough knowledge of the overall process.

Just like a doctor who is able to make a diagnosis very quickly upon examining a patient symptoms, an immigration lawyer is able to review and quickly offer solutions to potential issues that could arise with a K-1 visa for your Vietnamese fiance. Some of these issues that are common include language and culture barriers between the U.S. citizen and Vietnamese fiance, age gaps, and social economic gaps. By consulting and retaining an experienced immigration lawyer who has experience in working with Vietnamese clients, you will take comfort in knowing that you are working with a professional who can offer solutions and strategies.

An immigration lawyer can represent you and your fiance with numerous U.S. immigration agencies.

Obtaining a U.S. fiance visa for your Vietnamese fiancee involves two U.S. immigration agencies- United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and the Department of State. When you retain an immigration lawyer to file the petition with USCIS, they will submit a USCIS Form G-28 Attorney Representation Form indicating that you and your fiance are being represented. In the event that there are problems with processing at USCIS, an immigration lawyer can speak with the agency and file additional documentation on your behalf. Once the petition is approved and sent to the U.S. Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City, an immigration lawyer can continue to represent you and your fiance without having to file additional documentation.

For more information on how consulting and hiring a U.S. immigration lawyer can be beneficial to you and your Vietnamese fiance, contact us at info@enterlinepartners.com to speak with one of our immigration lawyers.

What is a Form I-212 Following Deportation From the United States?

If you have been deported from the United States and looking to re-enter, you may be eligible to file a Form I-212, Application for Permission to Reapply for Admission into the United States After Deportation or Removal (“Form I-212”). The Form I-212, which is submitted and adjudicated by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) is required for those who are seeking to enter the U.S. while they still have a re-entry bar after they have been deported. The Form I-212 is often filed in conjunction with a Form I-601, Waiver of Inadmissibility, which is used when a foreign national is found to be inadmissible based on previous criminal or immigration violations. However, unlike a Form I-601 in which the standard of review focuses on “extreme hardship” to the qualifying U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, if the foreign national is prohibited from being allowed to immigrate to the

“Class A or B (TB) )…requires attn of USPHS at POE ” Annotation On Your U.S. Immigrant Visa

Please note that your immigrant visa has an annotation “Class A or B (TB)…requires attn of USPHS at POE.” This notation refers to a finding related to tuberculosis (“TB”), a communicable disease of public health significance. During the required medical examination, the panel physician assessed whether you may have Class A or Class B tuberculosis.  Class A TB applies if you have active, infectious tuberculosis. If so, you are generally inadmissible to the United States until you have completed treatment and no longer pose a public health risk.  Class B TB applies if you have a history of tuberculosis, evidence of latent TB infection, or findings suggestive of non-infectious TB that require further evaluation or follow-up. The annotation “requires attn of USPHS at POE” means that you must be referred to the U.S. Public Health Service (“USPHS”) at the U.S. port of entry for further medical review or instructions. Upon

What is Birthright Citizenship and Can Trump End It

Beginning in 2018, President Donald Trump voiced support for ending birthright citizenship. Following the 2024 election results, Trump has made several additional public comments about ending birthright citizenship. Or at least redefine it. This poses the question: “what is birthright citizenship and can Trump end it?” What is Birthright Citizenship? Following the American Civil War, Congress ratified the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Specifically, the 14th Amendment, which was ratified in 1868, was enacted in part to ensure that former slaves and their descendants, who were part of the Confederacy, would be recognized as U.S. citizens. The 14th Amendment, with regards to citizenship, states the following: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the state wherein they reside.” In plain language, this means that anybody who is born  within the United
