I-485- Adjustment of status
The I-485 adjustment of status is an application filed by certain individuals who are already present in the United States and wish to adjust their immigration status to become lawful permanent residents (green card holders). This application is submitted to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). The I-485 is typically filed by individuals who are eligible for a green card through family-based, employment-based, refugee or asylum status, diversity visa lottery, or other specific immigration categories.
