CASE: I-130 (Petition for Father) and Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Nigerian
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client retained us to petition his father for his green card. Our client was born and raised in Nigeria, but was naturalized in the United States in 2018. He contacted our office in June of 2018 and discussed with us the green card process. His father came to the United States from Nigeria on a B-2 visitor’s visa in May 2004 and changed his status to F-1 later. After consultation, he retained our office again on June 6, 2018.
Once retained, our firm prepared and filed the I-130 Petition and Adjustment of Status Application on June 29, 2018 for his father. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices, fingerprint appointment, and a work permit all came on time. On September 27, 2018, our client appeared at his I-485 adjustment of status interview at Cleveland, Ohio USCIS Field Office. Prior to the interview, our office prepared him at our office and also accompanied him at his interview. Eventually, on October 17, 2018, our client’s father’s adjustment of status application was approved. Now, he is a green card holder.
