      <image:title>Blog - Proving a Bona Fide Marriage While Living Apart - When reviewing a marriage-based petition, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services  (USCIS) will view living apart as a red flag. While significant, this red flag can be overcome. USCIS will want to know why the couple lives apart and their plans to live together in the future.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Proving a Bona Fide Marriage While Living Apart - While living separately is a red flag in marriage-based immigration cases, this fact alone should not prevent you from obtaining a green card.

      <image:title>Blog - Working on a C9 EAD Card While a Student - Once approved, the foreign national can work for any employer in the United States, full-time or part-time, and in any industry. A foreign national working on a C9 EAD may switch jobs at any time and can even open his or her own business. (One minor restriction is that the foreign national should not work in the marijuana industry, even if legal in his or her home state, because marijuana remains illegal under federal law. Working in this industry can have negative immigration consequences.)</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Working on a C9 EAD Card While a Student - Therefore, while it is understandable that foreign nationals may be drawn to the flexibility of a C9 EAD, it is important to understand the consequences to one’s underlying nonimmigrant status. In some instances, such as F-1 students, it may be better to maintain the nonimmigrant status than work on a C9 EAD.</image:title>
