Can you imagine doing everything you can to build a future in the United States, only to have your life put on pause by years of denials and the fear of removal?
Our client entered the United States from Nigeria in 2010 on an F-1 student visa with a dream of pursuing a medical career.
After marrying a U.S. citizen in 2011, he filed for Adjustment of Status and was granted conditional permanent resident status.
But the marriage deteriorated and became abusive.
They divorced in 2015, and he tried to move forward by filing an I-751 waiver to remove conditions.
Unfortunately, the case faced multiple denials over time, and his conditional resident status was terminated.
In 2019, USCIS issued a Notice to Appear in immigration court but the case was not docketed with the court until 2023.
Despite these setbacks, he refused to give up.
He married his current U.S. citizen wife and became a stepfather to four children.
A new family-based petition was filed and approved.
He consulted with McBean Law in September 2025 to hire the firm for his removal case.
He also had a fast-approaching Master Calendar Hearing scheduled for December 2025.
After we were retained, our team moved quickly.
Prior to the hearing, we filed a motion to terminate removal proceedings.
Amazingly, the immigration judge approved our motion and cancelled his hearing!
With proceedings terminated, he can now proceed with Adjustment of Status at USCIS.
