Adjustment of Status

Often I am asked these types of questions in my consultations with clients: “How can I get a green card?”, “Can I stay in the United States and get my residency or do I have to go back home?”, “I entered illegally, can I get a green card?” “My husband got caught at the border and was turned around, and then came in again – can he get a green card?”, “Our application for adjustment of status was denied – can we file again or appeal?”

ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS IS THE TERM USED BY IMMIGRATION SERVICES TO PROCESS PERMANENT RESIDENCY HERE IN THE UNITED STATES

To the USCIS, it is a privilege reserved for only the best people who contain good moral character and have played by the rules. You may be here in the United States and be wondering if you can adjust status to a permanent resident and receive a green card. To get the correct answer you want to hire the best immigration attorney available to advise you on this very important issue.

A typical set of services that we will provide to clients that want to adjust status are as follows:

  1. We will provide the following services to you:
    Review your immigration documents and research the current law and procedures;
