Important Changes In Widely Used I-485 Adjustment Of Status To Permanent Residence Form And Procedure

The I-485 adjustment of status form is undergoing changes which must be noted because of its widespread use and because failure to adhere to the new procedures could cause filings to be rejected that in some cases could cause applicants to fall out of legal status.

In addition to change of address for certain employment based I-485’s, the I-485 form itself has changed, and the revision dated 12/3/09 is the only edition acceptable for filing.
