CASE: Marriage-Based Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Pakistani
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our Pakistani client came to the United States on a B-2 visitor visa in June 2014. She married her U.S. citizen husband in April 2014 in Pakistan, before she came on a visitors visa.
Our client and his husband first planned to file her immigrant visa through consular processing, but after she came to the United States, they changed their mind.
Our client consulted with us and retained our office in November 11, 2014 for her adjustment of status application. Our firm prepared and filed the I-130 Petition and Adjustment of Status Application on November 21, 2014. 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, in particular focusing on the lack of immigrant intent. On January 29, 2015, our client was interviewed at the Cleveland USCIS office. Attorney Sung Hee (Glen) Yu from our office accompanied them as well. On the same day, her green card application was approved.
