At Barrera Legal Group, we are proud to announce the approval of lawful permanent resident status for our client through adjustment of status based on marriage to a U.S. citizen spouse.
Our client entered the U.S. in 2021 on a B1/B2 visitor visa and later married a lawful permanent resident (LPR). Our firm first helped the spouse successfully complete the naturalization process, becoming a U.S. citizen. This allowed us to immediately file an adjustment of status application for the client.
During the process, we flagged a drug-related criminal charge in the client’s history. Because this charge had been dismissed, we worked to obtain and submit official court documentation verifying the dismissal. This proactive step ensured the case was accurately presented and helped secure approval.
👩⚖️ Why This Matters:
• Criminal charges, even dismissed ones, can delay or jeopardize immigration applications if not addressed properly.
• Marriage to a U.S. citizen allows for faster adjustment of status than marriage to a lawful permanent resident.
• Having legal representation ensures that sensitive issues, like prior arrests or charges, are handled with the documentation USCIS requires.
💼 How We Help:
At Barrera Legal Group, we don’t just file paperwork — we identify and address every potential issue that could threaten an immigration case. From helping clients or their spouses naturalize to clearing criminal record concerns, our team provides full-service, strategic representation.
