CASE: Asylee Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Chinese
LOCATION: Cleveland, OH
Our client came to the United States in October 2010 after she was granted derivative asylum status as the spouse of a person granted asylum. Her husband was granted asylum in November 2008, and thereafter, our client came to the United States as derivative asylee.
Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, an asylee may apply for lawful permanent resident status after he or she has been physically present in the United States for a period of one year after the date he or she was granted asylum status. Around October 2011, one year after she entered the United States, our client contacted our office and sought legal assistance for her adjustment of status. Our office was retained on October 17, 2011, and we prepared and filed her I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on October 28, 2011. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notice and fingerprint appointment all came on time. On January 12, 2012, the USCIS approved our client’s Adjustment of Status application. She’s now a permanent resident of the United States.
