Don’t put your immigration status at risk. Working with an Adjustment of Status lawyer in Miami can help ease your worries and assist you in filing this important and required application.
Let us assist you with filing for an Adjustment of Status.
Visitors to the United States who are in the country legally on a visa have met the requirements to apply for permanent residency (green card) and are waiting for a response. They have the option of filing for an adjustment of status. An adjustment of status allows them to stay legally in the U.S. while their green card application is processed. Without filing this crucial piece of paperwork, most would have to leave the country and wait for their residency application to be approved.
There are quite a few different situations where filing for an adjustment of status applies. Unfortunately, they don’t all follow the same sequence of events, making the process more difficult to understand. Here’s a look at some of the most common scenarios where filing an adjustment of status is appropriate and what to expect.
Individuals seeking employment-based residency need to work in conjunction with their employer.
The spouses, parents, and children of U.S. citizens who’ve applied for a green card must file the following forms:
If the immigrant filing for permanent residency is within the United States, both forms can be submitted simultaneously.
Individuals who enter the United States on a K-1 visa must adjust their status to obtain a green card and become lawful permanent residents after marriage.
Knowing when and how to file for an adjustment of status can be tricky, especially since each unique immigration scenario requires different filing times and forms. Filing incorrectly can cause delays in processing and could put your immigration status at risk.
