Adjustment of Status is a procedure allowing certain foreign nationals already in the U.S. to apply for immigrant status. Foreign nationals admitted to the U.S. in a nonimmigrant category may have their status changed to that of lawful permanent resident if they are eligible to receive an immigrant visa and one is immediately available.
