For visa holders and immigrants ready to secure a future in the U.S., adjustment of status enables you to obtain a green card without leaving the United States. If you are outside of the United States, you must obtain your visa abroad through consular processing.
As a former USCIS immigration service officer, Marron Gebremeskel has a deep understanding of the adjustment of status process. To get personalized advice, schedule a consultation with Law Office of Marron Gebremeskel, PLLC. Until your consultation, we’ve outlined what you need to know to get started.
The length of time it takes to complete the adjustment of status process varies depending on several factors, including the applicant’s individual circumstances, the accuracy and completeness of the submitted forms, and the processing times of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) at the time of filing.
Generally, it can take anywhere from several months to over a year to receive a decision. Applicants can check current processing times on the USCIS website to obtain a more accurate estimate for their specific case. During this period, it’s important to ensure all requested documents are provided promptly to avoid delays.
The 90-day rule is used to determine if applicants misled government officers when they were granted visas or admitted to the country. If an immigrant takes actions within 90 days of arriving in the U.S. that are inconsistent with their nonimmigrant status, they may become inadmissible for a green card or even permanently barred from entering the U.S.
Therefore, applicants must be transparent and compliant with their immigration journey towards permanent residency.
In order to improve your chances of success, we recommend always working with an adjustment of status lawyer, even if you think your case is simple. Because a simple mistake can result in a denial and a big headache.
If you are in one of these scenarios, you must consult with an adjustment of status lawyer:
