Adjustment of Immigration Status in Richmond

Consult With Our Experienced Richmond Immigration Attorney

Sometimes the terms of your visa either no longer apply to your circumstances or need to be modified to adjust for changes in your status. This expensive process can be made even more arduous if you do not consult with an experienced Richmond immigration lawyer. At Avalos & Associates, P.C., we put our years of service to work for you. We aim to streamline the process, giving your application the best possible chance at acceptance.

Why Would I Need to Adjust My Status?

For a variety of reasons, certain visas can be rendered inept or invalid, requiring you to apply for a permanent resident card. Perhaps you entered the country believing your job would be temporary, and it has transformed into a more permanent position. Regardless of the reason, applying for a green card requires you to go through a process known as Adjustment of Status.

This process allows you to apply for a visa, even though you are already in the United States. You are eligible for an Adjustment of Status if:

• You are already in the United States.
• You are in valid visa status (with a few exceptions).
• You are a refugee who has been in the United States for more than one year.
• You did not enter under the Visa Waiver Program.
• You are eligible to apply for a green card.

Certain exceptions are made for special circumstances. Even if you feel you do not qualify based on these criteria, our Richmond, TX immigration attorney can offer you honest advice regarding your options.
