What Adjustment of Status Is and Who It Is For<\/h2>\n

Adjustment of status is the request to become a lawful permanent resident while you are inside the United States. The law requires three things: an application, eligibility for an immigrant visa and admissibility for permanent residence, and an immigrant visa that is immediately available when you file. 8 U.S.C. \u00a7 1255<\/a> sets out those requirements.<\/p>\n

The statute starts with people who were inspected and admitted or paroled into the country. It also has exceptions, so each case is reviewed on its own history. A federal regulation adds that a person physically present in the United States may apply, unless a listed restriction applies. 8 C.F.R. \u00a7 245.1<\/a> states that rule.<\/p>\n

People who usually consider this path include immediate relatives of U.S. citizens, family-preference applicants, employment-based applicants, and some people whose cases are already in removal proceedings. Each group has its own rules, so the category matters from the start.<\/p>\n
