CASE: Marriage-Based Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Filipina
LOCATION: Chinle, AZ
Our client came to the United States in August 2016 on a H-1B visa from the Philippines to work as a high school teacher. Later, she married a U.S. Citizen in August 2018 and retained our office for her petition and adjustment of status application. She also asked us to file her minor son’s (Petitioner’s step-son) adjustment of status application.
Once retained, our firm prepared and filed the I-130 petition and I-485 adjustment of status application on December 5, 2018. 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 via conference calls. On September 18, 2019, our clients were interviewed at the Phoenix Arizona USCIS office. On the same day of their interview, our client and her son’s green card applications were approved.
