Adjustment of Status (AOS) is the process that allows eligible non-citizens currently in the U.S. to change their visa status to that of a lawful permanent resident (green card holder) without leaving the country.
Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents, such as spouses, parents, or children, may qualify to adjust their status under family-based or employment-based green card categories.
To apply for an Adjustment of Status, you must meet the following eligibility requirements:
1. Be an immediate relative of a U.S. citizen or a beneficiary of an approved Form I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative).
2. Have entered the United States legally and maintained lawful status throughout.
3. Have a visa number available in your category (per the Visa Bulletin).

1. Determine Eligibility & File Form I-130

2. Submit Form I-485
Once Form I-130 is approved, you’ll file Form I-485 to adjust your status to lawful permanent resident. In some cases, these forms can be filed concurrently.

You’ll attend a biometrics appointment where USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) may collect fingerprints, photographs, and your signature.
