CASE: Marriage-Based Adjustment of Status
NATIONALITY: Filipina
LOCATION: Des Plaines, IL
Our client came from the Philippines on a J-1 visa. She was not subject to the 2-year foreign residency requirement. In June 2018, our client is married her current U.S. citizen husband. She retained our office on January 26, 2021, for her green card application. Our firm prepared and filed the I-130 Petition and I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on February 12, 2021. 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 at our office via conference calls. On August 18, 2021, our client was interviewed at the Chicago, IL USCIS office. On the same day of her interview, her green card application was approved.
