Adjustment of Status

There are a number of different options available to those who wish to immigrate to the United States. In some cases, those who have legally been permitted entry into the U.S. without being granted immigrant status may be able to change their status. This procedure, known as adjustment of status, allows those already in the United States to get permanent residency status without having to return to their home country.

If you or someone you know is currently in the United States and would like to pursue adjustment of status in order to gain permanent residency, it may be advisable to consult with a qualified legal professional.

Potential Immigrant Petitions

In order to qualify for adjustment of status, it is often necessary to have a petition for immigration filed on the individual’s behalf. The most commonly filed petitions in this situation include:

• Form I-130: typically used for family-based immigration
• Form I-140: typically used for employment-based immigration
• Form I-360: typically used for special cases

These are the basic petition forms which may be used to pursue adjustment of immigrant status.
