No. I have previously given some advice as to what to look for in an Attorney to help with the K Visa process. We have discussed, experience, availability, and fees.. The one subject that we have not talked about is location of your counsel.

With the advent of email and the internet and the fact that Immigration law is Federal based law and not state law, your attorney can be licensed in any state and practice Immigration in all fifty states. There is no need to hire local counsel as their would be with a state or local legal issue. Most of the work that is being done can be easily moved by email and over the phone. I consult with clients over the phone, by email and through video conferencing everyday. If fact, its these technologies which have improved our service greatly.

Unless you like paying for parking at an expensive downtown location, you are free to choose whomever you feel most comfortable with. No worries, location is not an issue anymore. 

If you have questions or would like to discuss your immigration matter, please feel free to call me at 1-888-515-3529. I do not charge for legal consultations and welcome your call.

In January of 2010, USCIS began accepting only the new version of the I-693 Medical Report. This change impacts people who are applying for an Adjustment of Status while in the United States. The new form is available on the USCIS web site.

According to INA §245(a), the status of an alien who was inspected and admitted or paroled into the United States may be adjusted by the Attorney General, in his discretion and under such regulations as he may prescribe, to that of an alien lawfully admitted for permanent residence if:

  1. the alien makes an application for such adjustment,
  2. the alien is eligible to receive an immigrant visa and is admissible to the United States for permanent residence, and
  3. an immigrant visa is immediately available to him at the time his application is filed.

For purposes of this article, what forms make up the application for adjustment?

I-130 Petition for Alien Relative

I-485 Application to Register Permanent Resident or Adjust Status

G-325A Biographic Information

I-765 Application For Employment Authorization (optional)

I-693 Medical Report

I-864 Affidavit of Support

If you are not currently represented by legal counsel and have questions about the process or the forms that are required for an adjustment of status, please feel free to call me at 1-888-515-3529. I do not charge for Legal Consultations.

To be eligible for an adjustment of status, the applicant must have been inspection, admitted or paroled into the United States. The USCIS officer must have been given a “full and fair opportunity” to conduct the inspection before the alien is considered “inspected”. An alien who presents himself or herself for inspection before a USCIS officer as a passenger of a car will be considered “inspected” even where the USCIS officer does not question anyone in the car other than the driver. “Admission” occurs when the inspecting officer informs the applicant that the applicant is admissible and the applicant is permitted to pass through the port of entry. Generally, the alien’s I-94 and/or the USCIS stamp in the alien’s passport are proof of inspection and admission.

An alien who enters based on an intentional false claim to U.S. citizenship has not been inspected.

If you are not currently represented by legal counsel and have questions about the process or the forms that are required for an adjustment of status, please feel free to call me at 1-888-515-3529. I do not charge for Legal Consultations.

An immigrant visa must be immediately available to the applicant for an Adjustment of Status at the time his or her application for adjustment is filed. You can check the Visa Bulletin at The DEpartment of State web site to check availability. If an adjustment application is properly filed at the time that the individual’s visa priority date is current but the priority subsequently retrogresses before the case is adjudicated, the adjustment cannot be completed. However, the applicant will be permitted to remain in the United States until the priority date becomes current again, provided that he or she remains eligible for adjustment.

An Immigrant visa is immedialety availble for spouses of US citizens and so long as their is no other bar to eligibilty, there should be no problem. 

If you are not currently represented by legal counsel and have questions about the process or the forms that are required for an adjustment of status, please feel free to call me at 1-888-515-3529. I do not charge for Legal Consultations.

U.S. citizens who wish to get married to a foreign national in the United States must petition for a fiancee classification K1 Fiance Visa for their fiancee using the USCIS I-129F form.

  1. You and your fiance must be free to marry.
  2. You must also have met with your fiancee in person within the last two years before filing for the fiance visa. This requirement can be waived only if meeting your fiancee in person would violate long-established customs, or if meeting your fiancee would create extreme hardship for you.
  3. You and your fiancee must marry within 90 days of your fiancee entering the United States.

Applying for a K1 Fiance visa for your foreign fiancee has the following benefits:

  • The K-1 fiance visa generally has a shorter waiting period compared to marriage-based immigration visa petitions . This year the approval process is taking about 3 1/2 – 4 months
  • Your fiance can apply for a work permit by filing Form I-765.
  • Children of your foreign fiancee can come to the U.S. on the K2 Visa as long as they are listed on the I-129F fiance visa petition
