CASE: Adjustment of Status Based on Approved K-1 Visa

CLIENT: Slovakian

LOCATION: Vermillion, OH

Our client came to the United States in April 2019 as a K-1 visa entrant from Slovakia.  Our client is the beneficiary of an approved I-129F petition. She came to the United States as a K-1 Fiancée of a U.S. Citizen whom she married within 90 days of her entry. By law, if you married your petitioner-fiancé within 90 days of your K-1 visa entry, you are eligible to apply for adjustment of status (green card) in the United States. She married in June of 2019. 

Our client contacted our office initially and consulted with us for her adjustment of status application. She retained our office on July 12, 2019.  After the retention, our firm quickly prepared and filed the I-485 Adjustment of Status Application on September 5, 2019. Things went smoothly and the receipt notices, and the fingerprint appointment all came on time.  

Thereafter, the USCIS scheduled an interview for our client’s adjustment of status application.  Prior to the interview, we thoroughly prepared our clients at our office. On January 7, 2020, our clients were interviewed at the Cleveland, Ohio USCIS office. Eventually, on the same day of the interview, her green card application was approved.
