Am I Eligible For Adjustment Of Status?

You may have had a relative or an employer file a petition for you, but if you are looking to obtain a green card while in the united stated, you may need to adjust the status. This would require evaluating your eligibility, making sure that there are no grounds for inadmissibility or deportation (as with a criminal background) and that all proper documentation, forms and interviews with the immigration office are thoroughly prepared and submitted to the appropriate agencies.

Some basic requirements for eligibility are:

foreign national

The foreign national should have entered the United States legally.

immigrant visa

An immigrant visa must be immediately available for the foreign national.

non-immigrant visa

The non-immigrant visa must be adhered to, meaning it cannot be “out of status.” An individual may be “out of status” if he or she entered the U.S. legally but stayed in the U.S. longer than his or her visa allowed.
