Employment Based adjustment application quota met for fiscal year
Posted on September 26, 2015 by Brian D. Lerner, Immigration Lawyer & Deportation Attorney
USCIS advised that it has suspended final adjudication of employment-based Form I-485 applications as of today, because the Department of State indicated that the statutory cap has been reached for the employment-based preference categories through the remainder of FY2015, which concludes on September 30, 2015. USCIS stated that it will continue to accept adjustment of status applications that are filed when the applicant’s priority date is earlier than the relevant cut-off date published in the September Visa Bulletin. Final adjudication of employment-based adjustment applications will resume on October 1, 2015, on which date visa numbers will again be available.

Another win for the Law Offices of Brian D. Lerner
Posted on May 31, 2013 by Brian D. Lerner, Immigration Lawyer & Deportation Attorney
IJ denied Client’s motion to reopen his 2010 in absentia order and relied on fairly new warnings on Form I-485, advising applicants to keep USCIS updated of address changes for removal purposes. Appeal to BIA was sustained, finding that the IJ’s decision was in error and that Client was not properly advised of his hearing and that he did not receive notice of his hearing. Now Client can fight for status in the United States without being deported.
