Texas Change of Status Attorneys
A Change of Status is a process through which a non-citizen of the United States can apply to change their current nonimmigrant status to another nonimmigrant status or to an immigrant status. For example, a person who enters the US on a tourist visa may apply for a Change of Status to a student visa if they decide to enroll in a school in the US.
To file for a Change of Status, the non-citizen must submit a petition to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) along with the required documentation and fees. The process can be complex, and it is important to ensure that the application is complete and accurate to avoid delays or denials.
A Texas immigration attorney can assist with the Change of Status process by:
- Determining eligibility: An immigration attorney can help determine whether the non-citizen is eligible for a Change of Status based on their current immigration status, length of stay, and other relevant factors.
- Identifying the appropriate visa category: An immigration attorney can help identify the appropriate nonimmigrant or immigrant visa category for the Change of Status application.
- Preparing the application: An immigration attorney can help prepare the Change of Status application, ensuring that all necessary documentation is included and that the application is complete and accurate.
- Advocating for the client: An immigration attorney can advocate for the client throughout the Change of Status process, communicating with USCIS officials and addressing any issues or concerns that may arise.
- Appealing a denial: If the Change of Status application is denied, an immigration attorney can represent the client in appealing the decision, providing legal arguments and supporting evidence to demonstrate their eligibility for the requested status.
