U.S. Adjustment of Status Attorney

The United States of America offers a path to citizenship for many
immigrants through a process called Adjustment of Status. You can
qualify for Adjustment of Status if:

  1. Your employer has filed an immigrant petition on your behalf
    (also known as employment-based immigration.)
  2. You are the immediate relative of a U.S. citizen or have a
    family relationship with a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent
    resident that qualifies you for
    a family-based immigrant visa.
  3. You are a refugee or asylee who has been
    physically present in the United States for at least one year.
  4. You meet the requirements for
    a special immigrant category.
If you are eligible to adjust your status, you must file an
application with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services
(USCIS). The application process can be complex, and it is
important to have an experienced immigration attorney by your
side.
At Olubusayo Fasidi PC,

we have over a decade of experience helping immigrants
navigate the Adjustment of Status process. We will work with
you to ensure that your application is complete and accurate,
and we will represent you in any interviews or hearings that
may be required.

Family Based Immigration

If you are seeking to adjust your status based on your
relationship with a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident,
you will need to file a family-based immigrant visa petition.
There are four preference categories for family-based immigrant
visas:

  • Immediate Relatives of U.S. Citizens

    You may be eligible for an immigrant visa if you are the
    spouse, unmarried child under the age of 21, or parent of a
    U.S. citizen. There is no annual limit on the number of
    immigrant visas available in this category.

  • First Preference

    You may be eligible for an immigrant visa if you are an
    unmarried adult child of a U.S. citizen or a child of a
    lawful permanent resident who is 21 years of age or older.

  • Second Preference

    You may be eligible for an immigrant visa if you are the
    spouse or unmarried child under the age of 21 of a lawful
    permanent resident.

  • Third Preference

    You may be eligible for an immigrant visa if you are the
    married child of a U.S. citizen, or the child of a lawful
    permanent resident who is 21 years of age or older.

  • Fourth Preference

    You may be eligible for an immigrant visa if you are the
    sibling of a United States citizen regardless of your age
    and marital status.

The number of immigrant visas that are available in each
preference category is limited each year. This means that
there may be a wait for a visa to become available, depending
on the demand in each category. With the right representation
by a skilled adjustment of status attorney, you don’t have to
worry too much about the wait.
We will help you navigate and seal any loopholes in your
application to give you the best chance possible of success.

Asylum and Refugee Status

Form I-589, Application for Asylum and for Withholding of
Removal, is the form used to apply for asylum in the United
States. You may also use this form to apply for withholding of
removal, similar to asylum but with a higher burden of proof. To
be eligible for asylum, you must demonstrate a well-founded fear
of persecution because of your race, religion, nationality,
membership in a particular social group, or political opinion.
Withholding of removal is available only in removal proceedings.
If you are granted asylum or withholding of removal, you will be
allowed to live and work in the United States. You may also be
eligible for certain benefits, such as food assistance and
medical care. If you are applying for asylum, you must file your
application within one year of your last arrival in the United
States unless you can demonstrate that there are changed
circumstances that materially affect your eligibility for relief
or extraordinary circumstances relating to your delay in filing.
