Form I-485 | Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status

You can use Form I-485 when you decide to obtain the permanent resident status (in other words, to get a green card) in the United States after you moved to the country. Form I-485 is also known as Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status or simply as an adjustment application. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services provides this form so you can avoid the consular processing. Because of consular processing, you would have to return to your country to obtain your visa. But with Form I-485, it is much simpler to get the green card when adjustment of status is used instead of consular processing. https://usa-immigrations.com/form/form-i-485-or-application-to-register-permanent-residence-or-adjust-status/
