Adjustment of Status Attorney in Dallas
Immigration Lawyers Based in Dallas, TX
When an individual enters the United States legally and meets all the necessary qualifications for a green card, the individual can go through an "adjustment of status" to change his or her status to a permanent resident (green card holder).
Adjustment of status allows those already in the United States to change one's status without having to leave the country. For those outside of the United States, the individual can go through consular processing and obtain a visa through a U.S. consulate in their country.
Call Akula & Associates P.C. today to get started on your initial consultation!
To be eligible for adjustment of status:
- The immigrant must be physically present in the United States
- The immigrant must already have an approved visa petition (either via family visa or work visa)
- If you entered on a K-1 fiancé(e) visa, you must have married the U.S. citizen who petitioned for you
- The immigrant must not have entered the U.S. illegally
- There must be no change in circumstances (ex: death of a U.S. citizen petitioning for an immediate relative before an application is approved)
By fulfilling the above eligibility requirements, you are not necessarily eligible for adjustment of status. There are several statutory bars of Adjustment of Status in the United States that can prevent you from receiving this.
How Much Does Adjustment of Status Cost?
There is typically a filing fee associated with the petition for an Adjustment of Status. The charge from the USCIS will widely depend on the form that you file under, whether Form I-130, I-140, or I-360.

My journey started with Akula & Associates exactly 10 months ago. Came to know about them through a friend, casually called, impressed with their profile and signed up contract for services. Last 10 months we filed several cases and each case they treat like a completely new customer and examine each document thoroughly, advise and make us on top of the things. I truly say sincere THANKS for their great service. I truly love their staff. My paralegal Yezenia is awesome, attorney Toki is wonderful. Yet to work more with GC team, Shirin and Christie, great work experience so far. Last but not least Attorney Kavitha is Great!!! I hope I get the same level of service for me and employees for coming years!!! Good luck to Akula & Associates !!- Venkat C.
