CASE: Adjustment of Status Based on Approved K-1 Visa
CLIENT: British
LOCATION: Mount Vernon, NY
Our client came to the United States in July 2018 as a K-1 visa entrant from the United Kingdom. Our client is the beneficiary of an approved I-129F petition. He came to the United States as a K-1 Fiancé of a U.S. Citizen whom he married within 90 days of his entry. By law, if you married your petitioner-fiancé within 90 days of your K-1 visa entry, you are eligible to apply for adjustment of status (green card) in the United States. He married in August of 2018.
Our client contacted our office initially and consulted with us for his adjustment of status application. He retained our office on September 4, 2018. After the retention, our firm prepared and filed the I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on September 6, 2018. Things went smoothly and the receipt notices, and the fingerprint appointment all came on time.
Thereafter, the USCIS scheduled an interview for our client’s adjustment of status application. Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our clients via conference call. On January 7, 2020, our clients were interviewed at the New York, NY USCIS office. Eventually, on the same day of his interview, his green card application was approved.
