Court Holds That K-4 Visa Applicant Cannot Adjust Status On Own Marriage

The Board of Immigration Appeals recently determined that a K-4 visa applicant cannot adjust status based upon her marriage to a U.S. citizen.  The BIA ruled that the applicant could not adjust status because she had entered the United States on the K-4 visa.  Due to the restrictions on the K-4 visa holder, she could not adjust status except through the K-4 relationship.

The K-4 visa is available to the sons and daughters of spouses who enter the United States on the K-3 visa.  To learn what immigration options might be available to K-4 visa holders, please contact this New York immigration lawyer.
