CASE: Adjustment of Status Based on Approved K-1 Visa
CLIENT: Filipina
LOCATION: Fulshear, TX
Our client came to the United States in May 2020 as a K-1 visa entrant from the Philippines. Our client is the beneficiary of an approved I-129F petition. She came to the United States as a K-1 Fiancée of a U.S. Citizen whom she married within 90 days of her 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. She married in July 2020.
Our client contacted our office initially and consulted with us for her adjustment of status application. She retained our office on August 11, 2020. After retention, our firm prepared and filed the I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on August 25, 2020. Things went smoothly and the receipt notices and fingerprint appointment all came on time.
USCIS scheduled an interview for our client’s adjustment of status application. Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our clients via conference calls. On December 3, 2021, our client was interviewed at the Houston, Texas USCIS office. On the same day of the interview, her green card application was approved.
