Adjustment of status

There are several conditions that may make a non-citizen ineligible to apply for adjustment of status to permanent resident:

• Entry into the U.S. without a visa
• Person was not admitted or paroled following inspection by an immigration officer
• Authorized stay expired prior to filing for adjustment of status
• Person was employed in the U.S. without USCIS authorization prior to filing for adjustment of status
• Person failed to maintain non-immigrant status
• Person was admitted as a fiance[e] but did not marry the U.S. citizen who filed a petition.
