A client, originally from the Philippines, had been living in the United States on a temporary work visa. After marrying a U.S. citizen, they decided to apply for a green card to secure permanent residency. The client was unsure of the process and needed professional help to ensure their application was filed correctly and on time.
Challenge: The client had already attempted to file some of the necessary forms but had faced difficulty understanding the legal requirements for the green card application. They had questions about the various forms involved, including the I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative), I-485 (Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status), and the I-864 (Affidavit of Support). They also wanted to ensure that all supporting documentation was complete, such as proof of marriage, financial records, and medical exams.
Solution: Our team at Gulfcoast Legal Document Solutions worked closely with the client to prepare and review all required forms. We:
- Guided the client through the necessary documentation, ensuring that every form was accurately filled out.
- Double-checked that all supporting evidence, such as the marriage certificate, joint financial records, and health examination results, were submitted correctly.
- Provided a checklist to ensure the client did not miss any additional steps or forms.
Results: The client successfully submitted their green card application, and after a few months, their application was approved. The client was able to receive their permanent residency without complications, thanks to our thorough document preparation and assistance.
