QUESTION: i'm living here in the states . last time when i've entered was before 9-11 ....there was no VISIT - programm no fingerprints etc.. well i've heard a few times already that i do not have to go through that at departure if i didn't have to when i was arriving but will have to go through by the next time that i'm reentering . so is that true , i do not have to go through that ? p.s. passport exp. and out of status contacted my consulate about passport and won't have problems traveling with it . but because i'm out of status do you think that i still don't have to go through VISIT because i didn't when i've arrived here before 9-11 ? thank you x: 83 y: 13 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- david ingram replies: I am not a lawyer and have no privileged communication with you or anyone else. You should not discuss your situation with anyone but a lawyer and preferable a member of the AILA (American Immigration Lawyer's Association). I do not know where you live but Joseph Grasmick is more than qualified and operates a phone consultation service. You can find him at www.grasmick.com. I believe that you prepay $285.00 US. Do this now rather than later. If you have overstayed your original status too long, not only will you not be allowed to return but you could be banned from the US in the future for 3, 5 or even 10 years. Talk to Joe today or tomorrow and if you are too far out of status, you should likely leave right now, rather than next week. The longer you overstay your original visa, the longer the time that you will be banned from the US for anything but your own funeral.
