Immigration Lawyer Ari Sauer - The Immigration Answer Man 
I have applied I539 for extending my B1 visa on 21 April 2020.My original I-94 at the Port of Entry expired on May 8th 2020. I have not heard about any updates regarding the case. It is still pending. In the meantime, if I will return back to India on while my extension application is pending.
What is the procedure that needs to be followed in this scenario? What will happen to my visa? would it be valid for me to visit us again in the future?
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Yes. If you leave the US while your timely filed application to extend your status (I-539) is still pending, your B (visitor) visa will remain valid.
Mr. Sauer,
I was a conditional resident who just got conditions on a green card removed this September. I had my biometrics in August 2017. I have received a 10 year green card on which in the white square in the right bottom corner it says “Fingerprint not available” instead of actually having a picture of my fingerprint there. What is the possible cause of that? Is that a problem? Is it going to affect my international travels (specifically being admitted back in the US) in any way? Do I have to file I90 to get a card re-issued?
Steve, I don’t know. I have not seen this before and so haven’t had to research this particular issue.
My husband is a green card holder. he has applied for the F2A in February 2014 to petition me as the spouse, how long will be the waiting time?
can i also apply for student visa when i have applied for F2A visa?
Trusha:
I cannot tell you how long it will take for a visa to be available for your petition. No one can. Not even the people at the Department of State who make the Visa Bulletin. Here is a blog post of mine explaining why that it.

Having an F2A petition is not an automatic bar to being able to get a student visa. But it is a factor that the consulate can take into consideration, along with the fact that your husband is a US permanent resident, when determining whether you have strong ties to your home country and therefore do not have an intent to stay in the US an immigrate.

Hello there
M i elligible for a provisional waiver I-601 with a final order of deportation and a stay of dept. order from the ninth
cir. court wihch runing acctually until
court decision of my petition of review
based on assylum ?
I have 56y, married from a U.S citizen wife with approved i-130,
no crime,no conviction during my 18 years
of presence in the U.S
I can’t say whether you would be eligible without having a consultation with you and finding out a lot more information about you. But someone who has an unexecuted order of deportation is not eligible to apply for the provisional waiver. They would first need to have the order reopened and would need to have the court proceedings administratively closed or terminated before they could file for the provisional waiver.
Here is a link to my article about the provisional waiver program, that also addresses this issue: https://immigrationanswerman.com/2013/01/02/explanation-of-the-i-601a-provisional-waiver-rule/

You are right. Immigration is a very large topic to delve into. Choose one aspect of it, pephras something that is in the news everyday. How about writing about immigrants coming here and doing the dirty jobs that Americans shun? Think about it. Most people (Americans) would never consider doing gardening, house cleaning, fruit picking or anything else of this nature. The jobs that I have mentioned are low-paying, usually dirty, back-breaking jobs. Immigrants, legal or illegal will work for little, with no job security or benefits, just to feed their families. Sad, isn’t it?
