In this month's episode, John Khosravi, Esq. shares practical tips and recent case notes from his immigration law practice: catching I-130/I-485 date discrepancies before they trip up I-751 renewals, evidence tourist visa clients need for extensions, lessons from two Stokes interviews, ESTA cancellation glitches, ongoing DACA advance parole delays, the "arrest vs. detained" misrepresentation trap on DS-160s, a wave of AI-translation and AI-software outreach hitting immigration lawyers, a consular processing refusal over credit card debt/public charge, and the growing list of visa bond countries. Plus updates on the ILT magazine, the marriage green card course's new mentorship option, and sponsors eimmigration by Cerenade and Constellation.
