The final stage of the green card process, whether employment-based, family-based, asylum, lottery, etc, is either Adjustment of Status (AOS) or Consular Processing (CP). Adjustment of Status, processed through the USCIS, is available only to persons present in the U.S. CP is processed through the U.S. Department of State (DOS) and involves an interview at a consulate abroad.

What We Can Do For You : At the Murthy Law Firm, we can consult with you to help you decide whether AOS or CP may be the better choice. We take into account your preferences as well as factors such as your legal status, your marital status, and your employment situation. We can prepare and submit paperwork for either process, whether the AOS through USCIS or the CP through the DOS. If completing your green card application through AOS, we provide advice on when it may be appropriate to apply for employment and travel authorization. We can also help in preparation for any USCIS or consular interview and, if you are in our local area, one of our attorneys can represent you at the USCIS interview.
