Spouses and parents of U.S. citizens can often apply for green cards from inside the United States and avoid the time, expense, and risk of traveling back to their home country for an interview. This process is called “adjustment of status.” In order to adjust status, a person must have entered the United States lawfully. However, an immediate relative of a U.S. citizen (parent, spouse, unmarried child under 21) who entered lawfully can usually still adjust status even if their current status in the United States has expired.

Business clients who have immigrant visas immediately available can also often adjust status. However, business clients normally must be maintaining a valid non-immigrant status to adjust. This process can become quite complicated. Fortunately, we have experience in this area.
