Rezais permanent residency and. in the absence of a qualifying marriage. granted Mr. Rezai voluntary departure from the United States. The judge was very careful to mention. however. that there was no proof of false testimony by Mr. Rezai. and he granted voluntary departure rather than ordering deportation because. in his words. Mr. Rezai may be eligible for a visa in the future. Despite these comments by the immigration judge. who clearly did not anticipate the future application of the 204(c) exclusion to Mr. Rezais case. the INS has refused to approve Mrs. Rezais petition for permanent residence on behalf of her husband based on that very exclusion.
