Our office was hired to assist a detained Chinese immigrant with a prior removal order from 1997. He has a pending I-130 filed by his son, and his mother is a lawful permanent resident of the United States. Our office filed a motion for stay of removal and a motion to reopen his proceedings with the New York Immigration Court so that he can seek a 601A waiver based on hardship to his mother once he receives approval of the pending I-130. The Immigration Court granted the stay of his prior removal order, allowing our client to remain in the United States while the Court reaches a decision on our motion to reopen.
