Our client, a citizen of Pakistan, had entered the U.S. in the 1980’s as a student. His status eventually expired. He then married someone without legal status, and they had 3 U.S. citizen children. Our client hired a non-attorney from California to file his I-589 application, which was denied by USCIS, and then denied in court. Our client then hired Azhar & Azhar Law Firm to appeal the case. Meanwhile, his U.S. citizen daughter turned 21, so we filed I-130’s for him and his wife. Those were approved, so Attorney Furqan came to an agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to terminate his client’s case, allowing client and his wife to get permanent residency through USCIS. With his new green card, client was finally able to visit his elderly mother in Pakistan, whom he had not seen in over 30 years.
