Allow DHS / USCIS to receive application for Adjustment of Status with an approved I-140 immigrant petition
A high skilled immigrant has to wait for decades for an immigrant visa number to become available. Current title 8 U.S.C. 1255(a) (3) states that a nonimmigrant’s adjustment of status to a permanent resident can only happen if an immigrant visa is immediately available to him at the time his application is filed. This, however, does not prevent the administration from “accepting and holding” the AOS application until an immigrant visa number becomes available which time the applicant can resubmit the required forms.
