Adjustment of Status

     Adjustment of Status is a process that permits certain people in the United States to apply for lawful permanent resident ("green card") status without having to go abroad.

     Not everyone qualifies for this procedure. Those that do must apply with an office of the USCIS and all further processing will be done by that agency.

     Who May Apply to Become a Lawful Permanent Resident While in the United States?

    You may be eligible to apply for adjustment to permanent resident status if you are already in the United States and if one or more of the following categories apply to you.

Family Member:

    You are the spouse, parent, unmarried child under age 21, the unmarried son or daughter over age 21, the married son or daughter, or the brother, or sister, of a United States Citizen and have a visa petition approved in your behalf.

You are the spouse or unmarried son or daughter, at any age, of a lawful permanent resident and you have a family-based visa petition approved in your behalf.

Fiancé:

    You were a fiancé who was admitted to the United States on a K-1 visa and then married the U.S. citizen, who applied for the K-1 visa for you. (If you married the U.S. citizen, but not within the 90-day time limit, your spouse also must now file USCIS Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative).

     Your unmarried, minor children are also eligible for adjustment of status. See,"How Do I Bring My Fiancé to the United States?" for more information.

     If you did not marry the U.S. Citizen, who filed the K-1 petition in your behalf, or, if you married another U.S. Citizen or lawful permanent resident, you are not eligible to adjust status in the United States.

Spouse’s LPR Status

    Your spouse became a lawful permanent resident after you were married. You may be eligible to receive following-to-join benefits. In these cases, you may apply to adjust to permanent resident status, at the same time that your spouse applies for following-to-join benefits for you. For more information, see” How Do I Bring My Spouse to the United States to Live?”
