How does my foreign husband change his status from visitor to resident?

Answered by attorney Louis M. Piscopo
Immigration lawyer at Law Offices of Louis M. Piscopo, APLC
I assume that you are a U.S. Citizen. If so you have to petition your husband by filing an I-130 petition. If he is not in the U.S. you can immigrant visa/consular processing which will take about 1 year. If he is in the U.S. he can file for adjustment of status (Form I-485) at the same time as the I-130 petition. It would take about 2-3 months for him to receive his work permit and 4-6 months to receive his Green Card. However, you have to be careful about your husband traveling to the U.S. on his visitor visa if you are U.S. citizen and file an petition or intend to petition him. He could have a problem at the border/airport if USCBP believes he is not coming to visit, but his coming to live in the U.S.
