CASE: I-130 (Petition for Father) and Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Filipino
LOCATION: California
Our client retained us to petition her father for his green card. Our client was born and raised in the Philippines, but was naturalized in the United States in February 2015 through our firm’s legal assistance. She contacted our office in June of 2015 and discussed with us the green card process for his father. After consultation, she retained our office again on June 22, 2015.
Once retained, our firm prepared and filed the I-130 Petition and I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on June 24, 2015 for her father. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices, fingerprint appointment, and work permit all came on time. On November 17, 2015, our client (the father) appeared at his I-485 adjustment of status interview at Santa Ana, California USCIS Field Office. Prior to the interview, our office prepared him with possible interview questions via conference calls. Eventually, on February 23, 2016, our client’s adjustment of status application was approved. Now, he is a green card holder.
