Grettings everyone:
I'm a citizien from Colombia, strugling to get back to my wife and my life (you all know how it is) I was deported in March 2006. Immigration states I stayed illegally but the fact is my assylum case was pending for a veredict at the US 5th court of appeals and still they deported me.
My I-130(my wife filed it since May 2003) was finally approved in October 2006 so I went to my interview with the consul in April 2007, it went extremelly well but Immigration denied the I-212. The reason they give me is that the time my case was on appeal before the federal court still counts as unlawful presence! it makes no sense to me but the give me two options:
To appeal the I-212 deicsion or to file the I-601
I would apreciate sincere, honest advice from you guys.
Thanks so much for your answer
