CASE: Marriage-Based Green Card
CLIENT: Jamaican
LOCATION: Cleveland, Ohio
Our client is a professional football player who plays for the Cleveland Browns in the NFL. He came to the United States from Jamaica when he was a high school student and went to college as an F-1 student. After he was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, he started to play in the NFL as a P-1 visa holder. Later on he was picked up by the Cleveland Browns as a free agent.
He married a U.S. Citizen in August 2012.
Months later, our client retained our office for his I-130 petition and I-485 adjustment of status application, and our firm prepared and filed the I-130 petition and I-485 adjustment of status application, together with all necessary supporting documents, on November 25, 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 at our office. On February 14, 2014, our client was interviewed at the Cleveland, Ohio USCIS office. Attorney Sung Hee (Glen) Yu accompanied them as well. On the same day, his green card application was approved.
