Marriage Based Petition and Adjustment of Status Approval for Indian Client with Criminal Records in Cincinnati Ohio

CASE: Marriage-Based Adjustment of Status
CLIENT: Indian
LOCATION: Cincinnati, OH

Our client came to the United States in January 2008 with a B-2 visitor visa from India.  He married a U.S. Citizen in February 2011 and retained our office on August 15, 2011 for his adjustment of status application. He was hesitant at first due to his criminal records. He wanted to check if some are classified as crimes of moral turpitude and if it would hurt his case. After doing research, we confirmed that it would not affect his case. Our firm prepared and filed the I-130 Petition and I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on August 23, 2011. The application included certified copies of his criminal record, both from Court and the police. Everything went smoothly and the receipt notices, fingerprint appointment, and work permits all came on time. Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our clients. On December 9, 2011, our client was interviewed at the Cincinnati, Ohio USCIS office.  Attorney Sung Hee Glen Yu from our office accompanied them at the interview as well, and explained to the officer our position on his criminal records and why he still should be eligible for adjustment of status. On March 26, 2012, his green card application was approved, and our client obtained his green card.
