Some important things to remember
Irrespective of the status of the applicant, the immigration office is going to recognize the person’s restoration and as it is being processed, the applicant is not allowed to work and attend school.
Another thing with this one is that you cannot be granted restoration at the port of entry. Everyone that fails to comply under these conditions are going to have to apply for their restoration status. Once they leave, the applicants are required to seek for a new entry upon their return on the country.
