CASE: Adjustment of Status (I-485) based on First Preference Approved I-130
CLIENT: US Citizen Petitioner Mother; Chinese Beneficiary Daughter in Ohio
LOCATION: Cleveland, Ohio
Our client retained us to file her adjustment of status application (I-485) based on an approved I-130 petition which was filed for her by her US Citizen mother in February 2008. Our client is from China and has maintained her status in the United States. She was working as a controller under a valid H-1B status.
In October 2015, she was eligible to file her adjustment of status application. Our firm prepared and filed the I-485 adjustment of status application on October 23, 2015. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices, fingerprint appointment, and work permits all came on time. There were no requests for evidence.
Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our client at our office. On March 17, 2016, our client was interviewed at the Cleveland, Ohio USCIS office. Attorney Sung Hee (Glen) Yu from our office also accompanied our client. The interview went well, and her application was approved on March 21, 2016. Now, she is a green card holder.
