Please contact DRSI LAW for an eligibility check of your case.

US Family Immigration

US Family-based Sponsorship

US citizens may sponsor their spouses, parents, children, and siblings. There are extremely long grueling queues if your child is over 21 years old or if they are married. Green Card Holders or Legal Permanent residents may sponsor their spouses and children. The waiting time is also very long and can take a few years today to be reunited.

The procedure requires marriage eligibility documentation; proof of intention to live in the US, that is sent and uploaded to the NVC or National Visa Center and finally a visa interview in the US Consulate. The process can take around 18 to 20 months today.

DOMA

Since 2013, same-sex couples can also be united. In 2013, the US Supreme court ruled that the DOMA or Defence of Marriage Act was unconstitutional on June 26, 2013. By late 2014, same-sex marriage had become legal in states that contained more than 70% of the United States population. United States V Windsor.

Marriage fraud & High Risk Marriages

US Government officers still use the same survey results from the 1980’s showing that up to 30% of marriages between aliens and U.S. citizens are suspect. Even though these figures must surely have changed in 40 years – the legacy lives on. It has been shown that although the Law does accept equality between hetrosexual and homosexual marriage – the Officers examining the cases, may be more lenient to the evidence demonstrated by a straight couple that to a gay couple.

Marriage fraud in the USA is a violation of the law and can lead to both criminal and immigration penalties such as facing prison, a fine, or both. A sham marriage is one that is entered into in order to get around (“evade”) the U.S. immigration laws. (See I.N.A. Section 204(c).)

8 U.S. Code § 1325 Marriage fraud –

“Any individual who knowingly enters into a marriage for the purpose of evading any provision of the immigration laws shall be imprisoned for not more than 5 years, or fined not more than $250,000, or both.”

The Burden is on the US citizen to demonstrate their spouses’ eligibility.

“Entered your marriage in Good faith” – this is a safeguard that is required to demonstrate your genuine relationship for an immigration spousal visa to the USA. For hetrosexual couples, this may be simple – joint tax returns or joint property ownership. This can be extremely difficult for a gay couple to produce, should they live in a country where Gay marriage is not acceptable or where joint filing is not permitted. Many gay couples have emotional issues revealing their partners to their families, and so providing testimonials from family members or even close friends may also be complex.

“Intend to continue to live in a real marital relationship” – Furthermore, the USCIS additionally evaluate your future intentions as well as your past evidence. The ceremony certificates and the proof of your past is not enough for USCIS to evaluate your marriage, but a couple must also demonstrate proof that they intend to continue to live together and establish a future life together in the USA.

USCIS created the an Act called IMFA to help identity HIGH RISK couples – The laws are stricter for couples that fall into certain categories of suspicion identified by the Immigration Marriage Fraud Amendments of 1986 (IMFA)

The TWO Year Conditional Rule – Have you been married for less than two years prior to the submission of your case? You will be granted “Conditional Permanent Residency” . This two-year requirement applies to all noncitizen newlywed seeking permanent residency based on a recent marriage. This creates further loopholes and obstacles for newlyweds as well at any point during this two-year period, the Secretary of Homeland Security may terminate the conditional legal status and initiate removal proceedings against the noncitizen for a variety of reasons.

RED Flags – Marriage fraud Red Flags : “unusual or large age discrepancy between spouses,” “unusual associations between family members,” “unusual cultural differences,” “low employment/financial status of petitioner,” “unusual number of children and large discrepancy in age,” and “unusual marriage history.”

Visa Options for joining your spouse in the USA

K1 “Fiance” visa – This is aimed at non married couples who intend to marry within 90 days of entering the USA. This non immigrant visa permits the foreigner to visit their fiance and make a final decision before applying for a Permanent visa.

This is a two stage application based and requires strategy and time planning in advance.

I-130 Alien Immigrant Petition for Alien Relative from your home country – This is aimed at married couples who can demonstrate a genuine marriage that was entered into in good faith and that they intend to live together as a couple in the USA. The petition is filed whilst your married spouse is abroad and awaits patiently for an immigrant visa quota to be approved.

The State Department issues a monthly bulletin describing how many visas are available in each category and the respective wait times for obtaining a visa. For the most recent visa backlog information at the time of filing – check updated bulletin.

This is a three stage application that takes time and patience and passes through three separate organizations – the USCIS, National Visa Center and the US Embassy.

I-130 and I485 Alien Immigrant Petition for Alien Relative from within the USA If your spouse is legally physically present in the USA when you met them, perhaps they were a student when your relationship begun, or they were working on an L1 or E2 work permit for a company before they met you. If this is your situation, you spouse may be eligible to submit and process their I-130 and I485 Alien Immigrant Petition and Adjustment of Status Petition during their stay in the USA. This may seem ideal, but needs to be filed with caution and strategically plan the time frame. There may be a need to fly outside the US during this period or apply for Employment Authorisation.

This is a two stage application that takes time and patience and passes through the USCIS and finally in most cases, a formal interview.

Please contact DRSI LAW for an eligibility check of your case.

Foreigners ACQUIRE or Merge

with a US Business

The Steps of Mergers & Acquisition

There are a few steps to take during a Merger & Acquisition (M&A)

1. Markets/Services- Making an Analysis for your Plan:
The mergers and acquisition process begins by recognizing growth opportunities in the business sector you are interested in. An analysis of collected data on the market you are wishing to acquire or merge with including but not limited to: the demographics, employers, competitor; business financials and consumer loyalty and opinions is required prior to making the decision. You must also:
– Check your own liquidity and financial health
– Define your goals and success objectives

2. Consider Merger and Acquisition Options:
At this stage you find the potential Merger or Acquisition options that fall within the strategic financial growth objectives identified in the market analysis. This involves identifying the possibilities through research or a consultant. We at DRSI can assist you in finding the right fit for you

3. Financial Forecasts:
An in depth evaluation of the financial forecasts and credit position of the newfound target must be made. The analysis must focus on volume, revenue, cost, and balance sheets. Evaluations on the likely benefits of a transaction with this acquisition or merger option, the risks and other opportunities must be made.

4. Making a Decision on an M&A Option: The benefits and issues of the acquisition or merger is to be considered in depth prior to making a possible life changing decision. While making a decision, a due diligence review must be done to understand the issues, opportunities, and risks associated with the transaction. This is done through a final review of the financial, legal, and operational aspects of the business and a full disclosure of all information relevant to the transaction. Additionally an assessment on the businesses value and the possible different structuring options for the merger or acquisition transactions to meet the objective you wish to achieve is required.

5. Negotiation and Agreements:
Prior to the offer being accepted, you must ensure a complete and comprehensive negotiation to reach an agreement. You must ensure that any regulatory approvals are obtained prior to the close of the transaction. During the transaction, you should monitor the acquisition or merger to ensure that the negotiations continue to meet the goals and objectives you have established initially.

6. Carefully plan and perform integration: Once you have merged or acquired a business and its operations, it is time to merge the 2 together. You must use the plan developed initially to ensure the cultures of the 2 businesses do not clash. In the beginning, it is like a trial, you analize what works and what needs to be changed to stay on target. The deal is not the most important part of the process , but rather your ability to transition the business and integrate the two to make it into one seamless, organization that is driven by success, cooperation and your ability to realize the value of the business.

Examples of successful Foreigner Mergers and Acquisitions of US companies

The world’s largest US pork producer, an American company called Smithfield Foods, was acquired by a Chinese corporation. Budweiser’s rebranding – the cans may say “America” on them, but this beer is now owned by a Belgian company. Hoover brand was sold to Hong Kong, China-based firm Techtronic Industries in 2000, bought by multinational consumer goods company Unilever for $326 million. America’s iconic ice cream brand Ben & Jerry’s was started by best friends Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield after they purchased an old gas station and turned it into a scoop shop in 1978. Burger King, the American famous hamburger and milkshake joint today belongs to a Canadian company “Restaurant Brands International”, a Canadian fast food company. German supermarket brand Aldi Nord bought Trader Joe’s which dates back to 1967. Lucky Strike, once America’s top-selling cigarette brand, was established in 1871 in Virginia fell into the hands of the Brits. US Motorola Mobility was sold by Google to Chinese computer corporation, Lenovo.

More than 7 million Americans work for foreign companies such as BMW, Airbus, Tata and Haier.

The Business Core - Having the Right Business PLAN

A business plan is an important and often forgotten component of a US business visa application. Individuals may be able to produce a business plan, however, for immigration and loan purposes a well founded business plan focusing on financial forecasts and why the business is worth the investment or an approval of immigration status must be produced.

Business plans are required for the several visa applications such as E2 investor visa, EB5 immigrant investor visa, and L1 intra-company transfer visa. Each of these three visa categories include different requirements for what information must be included in the plan.

At DRSI, we work hand in hand with the client during the application process and build together the best business strategy. Therefore, we believe handling business plans benefits our clients.

Why are Franchises a Good Option?

Franchises have a pre-established business set-up and model. When wanting to invest in a business it is a great advantage to have financial numbers available, knowing the brand is recognized which reduces risk, receiving the training needed, having support from the franchisor and envisioning potential future growth and further expansion. Studies show that franchises have a success rate of approximately 90 percent as compared to only about 15 percent for businesses that are started from the ground up.

Benefits of Franchise

Pre-Established Business Model

According to 2019 research based on official census data, the two-year franchise success rate is about 8% higher than the independent business success rate. The one-year survival rate for franchises is about 6.3% higher (Francine Lafontaine, Journal of Economics & Management Strategy).

The regional center investment option would be better if you have less money available, you’re unfamiliar with running a business, or you’re not interested in directly managing your investment

Queues Visa applications - ENDLESS ETERNAL Battle

MEXICO | PHILIPPINES | INDIA | CHINA

The backlog to receive a US GREENcard among Indian nations is so acute that an Indian national who applies for a green card now can expect to wait up to 50 years to get one. Nearly 7,000 green card applications by Indian alien workers were pending—almost 35 times the number in 2018, data from US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) show. Overall, with 56,608 green cards approved for Indian workers, the group received nearly half of all permanent residency permits issued in 2019.

Indians face the worst backlog when it comes to getting a green card, thanks to a 7%-per-country cap on allocations each year. Nearly 800,000 workers and their families—most of them Indians—are waiting for employment-based green cards. USCIS is still processing applications from 2009; libertarian think tank CATO Institute estimates that the wait time for Indians with advanced degrees is 49 years.

Approximately 450,000 Brazilian immigrants resided in the United States in 2017, an increase of nearly one-third over a seven-year span that was marked by difficult conditions in Brazil, including a recession accompanied by high unemployment and inflation. Brazilians, who now represent 1 percent of the 44.5 million immigrants in the United States, have historically sought improved economic opportunities via emigration, especially since the 1980s. However, changes in U.S. immigration law made it more difficult for Brazilians to obtain tourist visas—a common method of entry that often resulted in overstaying to work illegally in the United States.

Nationality Based quotas

These nationality-based quotas are known as the country limits. The country limits result in each nationality waiting in lines that move at different speeds within each category. The wait time for Mexican siblings of U.S. citizens is different from that of Filipino siblings of U.S. citizens, and both wait times differ from those of Mexican or Filipino spouses of legal permanent residents. For the most part, just four nationalities — Indians, Chinese, Filipinos, and Mexicans — reach the country limits. When a nationality reaches the country limit, nationals of other countries pass them in the line.
