VO, Please, I have an approved I-140 Petition for EB2 visa. I am the petitioner and principal Beneficiary. Furthermore, NVC completed review of my documents an am waiting to be scheduled for and Interview at the US Consulate overseas. Currently I have an F1 visa on my passport obtained in June this year that will expire in 2018 as I am undergoing a Part time distance learning doctorate degree program in USA that have some residency portion. I plan to complete my degree in 2018.
sometimes last year I travelled with my wife and child to the USA on vacation and I enrolled my child in public middle school , while I came back to Nigeria. Then I never knew it was wrong to enroll my child on public school on B1/B2 visa. But when I wanted to visit my family two month later in the US , I was refused entry at POE. My B1/B2 Visa was cancelled without prejudice and was informed that I should not have enrolled my child in public school on B1/B2 Visa. Since I had a return ticket, I was returned back to my home country and found to be inadmissible.
In June this year, when I needed to Go to my school in the USA for my Doctoral residency, I applied for an F1 Visa which was approved after series of questions relating to the incidence I mentioned above.and I was able to travel to the USA for the residency program and returned after the program. I stayed for eight days and had no problem at POE. Moreover, at the visa interview for the F1 visa, I told the CO that I was very sorry and that if I had known it was wrong I would not have done it , moreover, when it was brought to my attention, and was refused entry at the POE, I made arrangements and withdraw my child from the school and returned him back to my home country , .
My question now, is when I am finally scheduled for my immigrant visa interview, since my child is also a beneficiary of my I-140 petition, I also plan to tell the truth of what happened, if I am asked questions relating this incidence. Are there other things I need to do to ensure approval of the immigrant visa for myself and that of my son? Any advice will be appreciated.
