CASE: Marriage-Based Adjustment of Status (F-2A category)
CLIENT: Indian
LOCATION: Houston, TX
Our client came to the United States from India. She came to the United States with a H-4 visa and later changed her status to F-1. She married a lawful permanent resident in October 2019 and retained our office for her green card application. Our firm prepared and filed the I-130 Petition and I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on October 31, 2019. We could file both I-130 and I-485 applications simultaneously since the priority date for F-2A category was current at the time of the filing. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices, fingerprint appointment, and work permits all came on time. Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our clients via conference calls as well. On April 21, 2021, our client was interviewed at the Houston, Texas USCIS office. Eventually, on April 23, 2021, her green card application was approved.
