Case Studies

T arrived to the United States as a B-2 visitor. Several months after arriving, she decided to stay. Her US citizen daughter K decided to undertake the immigration process for her mother “DIY” — do it yourself, without the assistance of a lawyer. But the process is not that simple — it includes accurately completing more than 50 pages of forms for the immigrant petition (I-130)/adjustment of status (I-485)/employment authorization (I-765)/advance parole-travel authorization (I-131)/ and affidavit of support (I-864), as well as providing numerous supporting documents. While USCIS accepted the I-130 petition, it rejected the I-485 because K used an outdated form and submitted a check for the processing fee in the wrong amount. As a result, T became “illegal” because her I-94 expired. K then contacted us. We then prepared the 485/765/131 package for her, as well as the affidavit of support (I-864), the affidavit of support from a co-sponsor (I-864A), and a short memorandum regarding T’s status. 7 months later, T’s green card was issued.
