Case of M.L.

M had arrived to the US to visit her US citizen daughter and grandchild. Her plan was to return back home after a couple of months. But the pandemic hit, and everything changed. She then decided to remain in the US and contacted us. We submitted an I-130 petition and at the same time, applications to adjust status (I-485), work (I-765), and advance parole for travel (I-131). USCIS approved the I-130 petition and I-485 less than two months after filing. 2 weeks later, she received the green card in the mail.
