If COVID-19 has taught us anything, it is that life can change in an instant. As the country strives to re-open and create a new normal, there are many lessons to be taken away. One of these lessons is the importance of ensuring your estate planning documents are in place when you are young and healthy.
I would like to inquire about how to gain temporary guardianship of an 18 year old male, High school senior, who is now living with me. If I can get legal guardian ship then I will be able to include him on my medical insurance. He was �kicked out� by his parents when he turned 18. We are not blood related, a family friend.
I am head of the house making about 30,000 a year. Counting the 18 year old there are now 6 of us in the house. Including myself, there are now 5 dependence. We live in Riverside County.
I would like to know if I can get temporary guardianship of an 18 year old.
If yes, how do I go about doing it in the least costly way?
Can father take minor child out of state
My husband say's he can take our minor child out of state without my consent. Is he correct? We are still a couple, but my health prevents me from going. He was to drive and I know is driving is wreakless.
Hi,
In 2008 I was caught driving without a Driver License, been handcuffed, taken to the police station, taken pictures and fingerprinted. I was bailed out and then the case was "thrown out " in court before the hearing even began, meaning that my lawyer talked with the judge (and maybe with the police officer, too ?!?) and then the judge said the case was dismissed. I was asked nothing, I pleaded nothing, I paid no fines, I was just witnessing them talk. My lawyer did tell me afterwards to absolutely make sure I don't drive without a DL ever again because if so, I will not be forgiven again, or something like that. Now I am applying for an adjustment of status from OOS to a permanent resident (Green Card). Form I-485, Part 3.C Question 1b asks if I ever been arrested, cited, charged, indicted, convicted, fined, or impressioned for breaking or violating any law or ordinance, excluding traffic violations.
How would you as a lawyer answer this question? Would you check Yes or No? If Yes, some lawyers say that that is grounds for inadmissibility, in which case I wonder if it even makes sense to apply if by checking Yes I open a can of worms and harm myself. For that reason I tend to check "No". But if I check No, wouldn't USCIS find out about me having an arrest record or something when they run the background check on me? (Remember, I was fingerprinted and mug shot). But then again, the question say "excluding traffic violations", so, I'm not sure how to proceed here.
If you were my lawyer, what would you advise me to check ?
Thanks,
John
