Te respondent, a native and citizen of Jamaica, appeals fom the March 14, 2013, decision
of te Immigation Judge, ordering her removed fom te United States. Wit her Notice of
Appeal, the respondent has fled new documentary evidence, which we constue as a motion to
remand. The Departent of Homeland Security opposes the appeal. Te record will be
remaded fr fther proceedings.
On appeal, te respondent has submited documentay evidence to indicate that her United
States citizen husband has fled a visa petition (For I-130) on her behalf with the United States
Citizenship and Immigation Services ("USCIS"). The respondent has also submitted supporg
documentation to establish the bona fde nate of her mariage. Thus, considering the totality of
circumstances presented in this case, te proceedings will be remanded to the Immigation Judge
to provide the respondent with an opportnity to seek a frther continuance while she awaits
adjudication of the Form 1-130, by the USCIS, so tat she may ultimately seek adjustment of
stats under section 245(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C. 1255(a). See, e.g.,
Mater of Hashmi, 24 I&N Dec. 785 (BIA 2009); Mater of Velarde, 23 I&N Dec. 253 (BIA
2002).
Accordingly, the fllowing order will be e tered.

2011 by Immigration Judge Pedro Miranda as Court's Exhibit 1.
1
At a master calendar hearing conducted on March 6, 2012, the Cour
advised the respondent as to the nature and purpose of these proceedings, the pending
allegations and charge, right to counsel, and an adjourment with a legal aid list to see
if she could come back before the Cour with counsel of her choice. She indicated that
she needed some additional time in order to get her funds together to pay for counsel.
The Court noted that she could not get sufficient funds that these services on the list
might be available at free or minimal charge. The case was adjoured until August 2,
2012 to see if she could be represented. At the August 2, 2012 hearing she indicated
she could not find any attorney to represent her. The Cour then swore her in and she
admitted the five allegations and conceded the charge of removal and the Court found
that based on those admissions and concession removal is established by clear and
convincing evidence. Afer explaining to her the right of designation of country she
designated Jamaica.
The Cour granted her an additional continuance from August 2, 2012 to
November 8, 2012 to again see if she could come back befre the Cour with an
attorney of her choice or again from the update list of legal serices that were provided
to her. The respondent has been unable to find counsel and the case was continued
until today, March 14, 2013 to give her one last opporunity to file both an I Form 601,
212(h) waiver in conjunction with an 1-130 by her United States citizen husband who I
believe has accompanied her on most if not all of the previous hearings as well as
today. She has not made much efort in tring to get an attorney on her own. She
indicated she called one organization on the three page list of legal serices and no one
answered the phone. She could not adequately answer why she did not try to pursue
