Adjustment of Status (AOS)

Adjustment of status allows individuals to become permanent residents without leaving the United States. This process helps families remain together and avoid the risks of traveling abroad. To qualify, applicants must meet requirements such as lawful entry or parole and eligibility through a qualifying petition. The process also involves a medical exam, background checks, and an interview. We support you through each step to make the experience clear and manageable.
 

Individuals with approved U visas and T visas may apply for adjustment after five years. These applicants must continue to meet strict eligibility requirements and show compliance with their visa benefits. The process often involves gathering updated documentation and demonstrating continued good moral character. We work closely with clients to ensure every part of the file is complete. Proper preparation helps avoid delays or unnecessary requests for evidence.
 

Survivors protected under VAWA may self-petition for permanent residency without relying on an abusive U.S. citizen or permanent resident relative. This allows survivors to pursue safety and stability independently. Evidence of abuse, the relationship, and good moral character must be carefully documented. Many survivors feel overwhelmed by these requirements, but we help ease that burden. Our priority is preserving dignity, safety, and long-term protection.
 

Children with Special Immigrant Juvenile Status may apply for a green card once a visa is available for their category. SIJS protects minors who have been abused, abandoned, or neglected and need the court’s protection. The process involves coordinating family court orders with immigration filings. We ensure both parts align and meet all requirements. This helps vulnerable children obtain permanent protection and stability in the United States.
