Adjustment of Status in the U.S. – Expert Legal Assistance

Family-Based Adjustment of Status

U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents can sponsor immediate relatives for Green Cards through the Family-Based Adjustment of Status process.

This allows spouses, children, and parents of U.S. citizens to apply without numerical limitations, making it an essential pathway for many families seeking permanent residency.

Additionally, preference categories are available for siblings and extended relatives of lawful permanent residents, though these applicants may face longer waiting periods due to numerical limits.

At Christine Nsajja Law Firm, our Adjustment of Status Lawyer for Family-Based Green Cards ensures compliance with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) regulations throughout the application process.

Whether you are applying for your spouse or other eligible family members, our attorneys provide comprehensive support to navigate the complexities of family-based immigration and help you achieve your permanent residency goals.

Employment-Based Adjustment of Status

Foreign workers seeking to obtain a Green Card through employer sponsorship may apply for Employment-Based Adjustment of Status. The primary categories for employment-based immigration include:

1. • EB-1
   • EB-2
   • EB-3

These allow skilled professionals and workers to apply for permanent residency in the U.S. Most applications require the submission of a PERM labor certification and employer sponsorship to verify that no qualified U.S. workers are available for the position.

As a trusted Immigration Lawyer for Employment-Based Green Cards, we ensure that all petition filings are accurate, timely, and comply with immigration laws.

Whether you are applying under the EB-1 category for extraordinary ability or under EB-3 for skilled workers, our team will guide you through the process, helping to avoid common mistakes and delays that could affect your application.

Unlawful Presence Bars and Waivers

Certain applicants may face unlawful presence bars, which prevent them from adjusting their status due to previous immigration violations.

In such cases, an applicant may need to apply for a waiver of inadmissibility. The I-601 and I-601A waivers allow individuals to overcome these bars by demonstrating that their U.S. citizen or permanent resident family members would suffer extreme hardship without them.

Our experienced attorneys assist clients in preparing and submitting waiver applications, offering guidance through each step of the process. We also help with consular processing solutions for applicants who need to leave the U.S. and attend interviews at U.S. consulates abroad.

Consular Processing – An Alternative to AOS

For applicants who are located outside the U.S. and are ineligible for Adjustment of Status, Consular Processing is the primary pathway to obtain an immigrant visa. This option is essential for individuals who are unable to adjust their status while in the U.S. due to unlawful presence or other disqualifying factors.

We assist clients with completing the DS-260 application, preparing for consular interviews, and filing necessary waiver petitions. Our attorneys will ensure that all aspects of your consular processing are handled accurately and efficiently, helping you to secure your Green Card through this alternative route.
