    Urgent help - inland spousal sponsorship application returned

    Hi why were your husband out of status? I'm in the same situation now and my restoration has been turned down in late July too. I was told there is nothing I can do about it as I also have difficulty leaving the country due to the pandemic. What should I expect? Thank you.

    Out of status applicants and letter of explanation

Should I apologize after describing matter of...
