Adjustment Of Status (aos) From F1, K1, F2, Etc To Green Card (usa Only!) by awe2015(f): 7:25pm On Sep 30, 2016
Wait justswise! Before you shut this forum down, I was thinking that there could be some Nigerians who are currently studying or visiting the United States who wish to adjust their status to either a Permanent Residency or Citizenship. While there are some Nigerians who came into the US with an F1 visa, tourist or any other type of visas, but was able to Adjust their status to a Permanent Resident visa, through legal means (NOT SHAM MARRIAGES).

If there are such people on this forum, would you mind sharing the procesess and what documents that are involved? This will help not only me, but also some other fellows in my category (or visiting) who found a nice woman, got married and are planning on filing for an Adjustment of Status. We wish to employ the same spirit as we have going on in the General u.s.a Student visa thread. We employ your kind advice!

Regarding the process, you can find this in the USCIS and many other websites online. It's straight forward if your relationship is genuine.

Go through and come back with specific questions.

You know people abuse the AOS system, that's why such discussion is better discussed in private. As to what procedure is needed, the 2 links shared by ttmacoy is almost all you need. Best!

I'm thinking so. But can it stand in place of the birth certificate?

If a citizen is filing divorce with her separated partner, how soon can it be finalised and what ways can it be appealed in order to fast track it.

The adjustment of status process is fairly easy for people who finish from a US university with advanced degrees and are able to secure jobs with companies wiling to file an H1B visa and start the green card process on their behalf.
