CASE: Marriage-Based Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Filipina
LOCATION: Des Plaines, IL
Our client came to the United States in 2001 with an H-1B visa to work as a registered nurse. Her previous employer filed an I-140 petition under the EB-3 classification on her behalf. The petition was later approved, and our client’s priority date was August 2001. Thereafter, she maintained her status as an H-1B visa holder and has extended her H-1B status.
In November 2011, our client sought legal assistance from our office regarding her adjustment of status application. After reviewing her documents and the Department of State’s visa bulletin, we determined that her priority date was current and that we could apply for her adjustment of status application. She retained our office on November 14, 2011 and our firm prepared and filed the I-485 Adjustment of Status Application and I-765 Employment Authorization Documentation on November 27, 2011. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices and fingerprint appointment came on time. On February 27, 2012, the USCIS Nebraska Service Center approved our client’s adjustment of status application. After a long wait, our client finally became a green card holder.
