Adjustment of Status Approval Based on Approved I-130 Parent Petition for Filipina Client in Albuquerque New Mexico

CASE: I-130 (Petitions for Parent) and Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Filipina
LOCATION: Albuquerque, NM

Our client retained us to petition hi Filipino mother who came to the U.S. to visit his son. Our client was born and raised in the Philippines, but was naturalized in the United States. He filed the I-130 petition for his mother and it was approved by the USCIS in August 2020. He contacted our office in September of 2020 and discussed with us regarding his mother’s adjustment of status application. He retained our office on September 23, 2020. 

Once retained, our firm prepared and filed the I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on September 29, 2020.  Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices, fingerprint appointment, and work permits all came on time. Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our clients as well. On May 4, 2021, our client’s mother was interviewed at the Albuquerque, NM USCIS office. Eventually, on May 5, 2021, the adjustment of status application was approved.
