Another win for The Law Offices of Brian D. Lerner, APC.

This client is under 245(i) because spouse filed an I-130 on 1/05/1998 so no physical presence requirement of December 20, 2000. She committed fraud by claiming to be a U.S. Citizen, but normally, this would be a permanent bar to admissibility. We argued that it was pre IRAIRA and only a fraud waiver was needed. USCIS agreed and now she is a Lawful Permanent Resident.
