CASE: I-485 based on Approved I-140 (EB-2)
APPLICANT: Chinese
LOCATION: Garden City, NY
Our client is a certified nurse practitioner from China, who is currently working at a dermatology clinic which was willing to petition her for a second-preference petition (I-140). Our client has a Master’s Degree in Nursing and has worked for this clinic since 2013. She has maintained her status as an H-1B visa holder in the United States. She had an approved I-140 petition which was filed by her current employer and this I-140 petition’s priority date was May 5, 2015.
In June 2019, she contacted our office and retained us for her and her immediate family members’ I-485 adjustment of status applications. Our office filed an I-485 adjustment of status applications for our clients on July 19, 2019. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices and fingerprint appointment came on time.
Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our client via conference call as well. On December 16, 2019, our clients were interviewed at Holtsville New York USCIS office. Eventually, on December 17, 2019, her and her family members’ green card applications were approved.
