“I have a final order of removal, but ICE hasn’t come for me yet.” I hear this all the time. And it’s one of the most dangerous assumptions in immigration law. Nothing happening does not mean you are safe. Time passing does not forgive a removal order. People live for years with final orders because files sit, priorities change, or enforcement resources shift. Then one day, something triggers action. A traffic stop. A background check. A policy change. A routine interaction with the government. And enforcement can start overnight. ⚠️ Important disclaimer: This video is for general information only and is not legal advice. Every removal case depends on specific facts, timing, prior hearings, notices, appeals, and immigration history. If you have a final order of removal, you should speak with an experienced immigration lawyer about your individual situation and available options. Hope is not a legal strategy. Planning is. ⸻ 📞 CONTACT INFORMATION 📍 Law Offices of Spar & Bernstein 📞 212-227-8933 🌐 www.lawsb.com 📍 New York City • Immigration Law Nationwide

Major update for H-1B workers and employers. A federal court in Massachusetts ruled that the Trump administration’s $100,000 H-1B fee was unlawful and vacated the proclamation and related government guidance. USCIS has now stated that, effective June 12, 2026, it is not collecting the $100,000 H-1B fee. But this is not necessarily over. The government has been given a short temporary stay until June 18, 2026, and may continue fighting this in court. There is also another lawsuit in Washington, D.C. where the fee was also found unlawful, but that case is currently on appeal. For now, the most important takeaway is this: the $100,000 H-1B fee is not currently being collected, but employers and H-1B workers should stay alert because litigation is still pending. If you are filing an H-1B, sponsoring an employee, changing status, traveling, or dealing with visa processing, speak with an experienced immigration lawyer before making decisions.

USCIS has announced it will comply with a federal court order vacating certain immigration “hold” policies that delayed or paused benefit applications and required officers to consider country-specific factors in discretionary decisions. This does not mean every case will be approved, but it may help people whose cases were stuck because of these policies.

Let’s play a game: Are you getting through, or are you getting deported? These are real immigration scenarios I see every day involving arrests, old convictions, travel, and green cards. Some outcomes may surprise you. Immigration law does not work on common sense. One detail can change everything. Two people with similar cases can have completely different outcomes. ⚠️ Important disclaimer: This video is for general information only. It is not legal advice and it is not a substitute for reviewing your specific situation with an immigration lawyer. Immigration cases depend on exact facts, dates, charges, dispositions, travel history, and prior filings. Everyone’s case is different. If you are guessing instead of knowing, that’s how people get into serious trouble. ⸻ 📞 CONTACT INFORMATION 📍 Law Offices of Spar & Bernstein 📞 212-227-8933 🌐 www.lawsb.com 📍 New York City • Immigration Law Nationwide

When USCIS tells you to withdraw your marriage case, that is not a suggestion. It is a warning. In many cases, USCIS is signaling that if they issue a decision, it will likely be a denial, and possibly much worse. Fraud findings, referrals to immigration court, or permanent damage to your immigration record can follow. Withdrawal does not automatically mean your marriage is fake. Often, it means your case is not ready, the evidence is weak, or there are inconsistencies USCIS does not like. Sometimes withdrawing is damage control. Forcing a bad decision can destroy future options. ⚠️ Important disclaimer: This video is for general information only and is not legal advice. Every marriage-based case depends on specific facts, timing, evidence, prior filings, and immigration history. You should never decide to withdraw or continue a case without speaking to an experienced immigration lawyer about your individual situation. In immigration, strategy matters. Pride does not win cases. ⸻ 📞 CONTACT INFORMATION 📍 Law Offices of Spar & Bernstein 📞 212-227-8933 🌐 www.lawsb.com 📍 New York City • Immigration Law Nationwide

About one out of every three immigration cases that comes to my office is not a new case. It’s me fixing mistakes caused by bad lawyering or people trying to do this on their own. Wrong forms. Wrong process. Wrong agency. Affidavits of support filled out incorrectly. Cases filed “just to try” without understanding the long-term consequences. Immigration does not forget. Those mistakes stay in your file forever and often make your case harder, slower, or impossible. Being your own lawyer is still a legal strategy. A bad lawyer is just as dangerous. Fixing a mistake is always harder than doing it right the first time. ⸻ 📞 CONTACT INFORMATION 📍 Law Offices of Spar & Bernstein 📞 212-227-8933 🌐 www.lawsb.com 📍 New York City • Immigration Law Nationwide ⸻ #️⃣ HASHTAGS (CLEAN + TARGETED)

If your asylum case was denied years ago, that does not automatically mean you’re out of options. What matters is: • Why the case was denied • Whether mistakes were made • Whether conditions in your home country have changed • What was filed and what was never reviewed Many people make the worst mistake possible. They ignore old asylum denials and hope immigration forgets. Immigration does not forget. In many cases, the first step is not filing something new. It’s getting the records. FOIA requests. Court transcripts. Prior filings. Only then can you determine whether there’s a path forward. Old asylum cases require strategy, not guesswork. 📍 Brad Bernstein, Esq.

Thinking about an EB-1 or a National Interest Waiver in 2026? You need to understand how immigration is actually reviewing these cases now. USCIS has raised the standard. Degrees, job titles, and resumes are no longer enough. What matters today is independent proof, real-world impact, and influence beyond your employer. For EB-1, immigration wants evidence that you are already at the very top of your field. For National Interest Waivers, it’s not enough to say your work is important. You must prove national importance, your ability to advance it, and why the U.S. should waive the normal labor process. Social media makes these visas sound easy. They’re not. When these cases are done wrong, they get denied and can hurt future filings. Before you spend time and money, make sure your case is built on evidence, not hope. 📍 Brad Bernstein, Esq.
