Adjustment of status
Adjusting Your Status to Become a U.S.
If you are in the United States and wish to apply for a green card without leaving the country, the adjustment of status process allows you to become a lawful permanent resident while remaining with your family. At the Law Office of Amanda M. Bradley, we assist clients in filing Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, ensuring that all documentation is accurate and complete. Whether you are adjusting status through marriage to a U.S. citizen or another qualifying category, our experienced team is here to guide you every step of the way.
Key Requirements for Adjustment of Status
To qualify for adjustment of status to a green card, applicants must meet specific eligibility criteria, including being physically present in the U.S. and having entered lawfully on a visa or parole. If you are applying based on marriage to a U.S. citizen, you must provide strong evidence of a bona fide marriage, such as joint financial records, photos, and affidavits. The process also involves biometrics appointments, a medical examination, and a USCIS interview. Our firm ensures that you are fully prepared, helping you navigate potential issues like public charge concerns, prior immigration violations, or inadmissibility waivers.
Let Us Guide You Through the Adjustment of Status Process
The adjustment of status timeline can vary depending on USCIS backlogs and your specific case, but mistakes can lead to unnecessary delays or denials. Our firm helps clients avoid common I-485 mistakes, respond to Requests for Evidence (RFEs), and prepare for the green card interview to maximize the chances of approval.
