CASE: Marriage-Based Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Filipina
LOCATION: Houston, TX
Our client came to the United States in June 12 with an F-1 Student visa from the Philippines. Later, she married a U.S. Citizen in July 2013 and retained our office for her petition and adjustment of status application.
She also asked us to file her daughter’s (Petitioner’s step-daughter) adjustment of status application.
Once retained, our firm prepared and filed the I-130 petition and I-485 adjustment of status application on September 6, 2013. 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 clients through conference calls. On December 3, 2013, our clients were interviewed at the Houston, Texas USCIS office. Attorney Sung Hee (Glen) Yu from our office accompanied them at their interview as well. On December 4, 2013, our client and her daughter’s green card applications were approved.
