Everything You Need to Know About Form I-485

What is Form I-485?
Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, is used to request lawful permanent resident (green card) status while remaining in the U.S. rather than going through consular processing abroad.

Family-based (immediate relatives of U.S. citizens or certain other family relationships)

Other special immigrant programs (e.g., certain Afghan or Iraqi nationals, special juvenile immigrants)

Key requirements:

Eligible visa category and priority date (if applicable) is current
No disqualifying immigration or criminal violations
