Adjustment of status FAQs

What is an adjustment of status?
Adjustment of status is the process that allows you to apply for lawful permanent resident status (also known as getting a green card) when you are already in the United States. This means you can become a permanent resident without having to return to your home country to complete visa processing.

HelloGov simplifies this process by guiding you through each step, from filing the necessary forms to gathering the required documentation.
When do you need to change your immigration status?
You might need to change your immigration status if you are currently in the U.S. on a temporary visa (such as a student or work visa) and you want to become a permanent resident. Other common scenarios include marrying a U.S. citizen or green card holder, or if you've received an offer for permanent employment in the U.S.

HelloGov can help identify if you're eligible for an adjustment of status and assist you in the application process.
What do I need to adjust my immigration status?
To adjust your immigration status, you'll typically need to file Form I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status), along with supporting documentation such as proof of your current immigration status, evidence of eligibility for a green card, and a medical examination report.

With HelloGov, you get a tailored checklist of documents you need and step-by-step guidance on how to properly compile and submit your application.
How much does it cost to adjust my immigration status?
The cost to adjust your immigration status includes the USCIS filing fee for Form I-485 and additional costs for biometrics, required medical examinations, and potentially an attorney if you choose to hire one. Fees can vary based on your age, application type, and whether you're filing with family members. HelloGov provides an up-to-date fee breakdown, helping you budget for the entire process without surprises.
How long does it take to change my immigration status?
The timeframe for changing your immigration status can vary widely based on your specific case, the current USCIS processing times, and your location within the United States. Generally, it can take from a few months to over a year. HelloGov offers tools to track your application's progress and provides updates on processing times, keeping you informed throughout the duration of your adjustment of status process.
