As an immigration lawyer in Houston, one of my first few clients, Janna, came to see me about her immigration status. She had a nervous smile, and told me that she was married to a citizen of the United States. I asked her why he wasn’t at the appointment with her. She slowly began to explain that their marriage had problems. She told me that he could be very jealous, she told me that before they married, they’d broken up a couple of times.

Conditional Green Card and Divorce: this is a subject immigration attorneys often hear about. There is much more information about the green card process than we can cover in one blog post, since there are so many scenarios that can arise when a marriage ends and immigration issues are involved. If you’re applying for a green card  or you have a conditional green card and you're getting a divorce, this is what you need to know.

I am a citizen, a voter and a resident of the U.S.  I am also a citizen attorney In Houston who helps people become U.S. citizens. I have been concerned about the information available to voters regarding our immigration system for some time.

After hearing recent comments by several politicians seeking state and national offices in the upcoming election, I decided to write this blog post to provide factual information to aid citizens of the country in understanding our immigration system and some of its shortcomings.

We hear a lot of concern about our immigration system and the estimated 11 million undocumented people in the United States. However, the actual working of our immigration system as it currently stands are rarely discussed.

Our system is complicated and highly technical, so it’s hard to discuss it at all as it can easily get confusing. But it’s also important to have an understanding of how it works, even on a very general level, if you want to be an informed voter.
