LATEST WINS: Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, And Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence
The Law Office of Akintunde F Adeyemo, PLLC is pleased to share two recent immigration victories that highlight our firm’s strategic approach to complex federal backlogs and specialized visa categories. Our team successfully secured an I-485 Adjustment of Status approval via the EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) pathway for a data analyst, and obtained a critical Form I-551 extension period for a client with a pending Form I-751. USCIS delivered the notices to the firm’s address over the weekend. These outcomes underscore the value of precise legal execution in an increasingly rigorous adjudication environment.
Our client, a highly skilled data analyst, sought lawful permanent residency to continue designing data-driven solutions and developing predictive and machine learning models for drug development and clinical trials. Given the constraints of traditional employer-sponsored pathways, we utilized the EB-2 National Interest Waiver (NIW) framework to self-petition, bypassing the labor certification process entirely. We met the strict three-pronged legal standard set by Matter of Dhanasar, demonstrating that his work possesses both substantial merit and national importance. Following the approval of the underlying Form I-140, we navigated the final stage of the process. This case triggered two separate in-person interviews. After that, the Form I-485 Adjustment of Status was approved, officializing the client's status as a Lawful Permanent Resident.
In a separate matter, a conditional permanent resident faced severe professional and travel disruptions due to extensive administrative delays associated with his pending Form I-751 (Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence). As the client's automatic regulatory extension neared expiration, his lawful status and employment authorization were placed at risk. Rather than wait for the lengthy I-751 processing, the client was granted a separate, valid extension period. This temporary proof of Lawful Permanent Residency successfully insulated the client from lapses in employment verification (Form I-9) and ensured uninterrupted international travel privileges while the Form I-751 remains under review.
These cases demonstrate that success before USCIS requires both technical precision and a proactive approach to bureaucratic delays. Whether your organization requires guidance on specialized employment-based petitions, or individuals need to safeguard their permanent status, our firm provides the rigorous and diligent legal representation.
Again, congratulations to our clients!
