CASE: Adjustment of Status at Removal Proceeding
CLIENT: Cameroonian
LOCATION: Columbus, OH (USCIS) / Cleveland, OH (EOIR)
Our client came to the United States in December 2013 on a F-1 student visa from Cameroon. Later, she filed an asylum application and her asylum interview was conducted by the USCIS. Her case was referred to the Cleveland Immigration Court and she retained our office for the representation of her removal proceedings in 2017.
She married a U.S. Citizen in October 2018. Our client’s husband filed I-130 petition on behalf of our client, and this I-130 petition was approved by USCIS Columbus Field Office in July 2019. Attorney Sung Hee (Glen) Yu, Esq. from our office accompanied our clients. Once the I-130 petition is approved, our office prepared and filed the I-485 Adjustment of Status Application, pre-hearing memorandum, and other supporting documents to the Cleveland Immigration Court.
On August 19, 2019, Attorney Sung Hee (Glen) Yu represented our client’s at her Individual Hearing for adjustment of status at the Cleveland Immigration Court. After the hearing, the Immigration Judge granted our client’s adjustment of status relief. Our client’s removal proceeding is terminated simultaneously. Now, our client becomes a green card holder.
