If you are a foreign-born person who has married a U.S. citizen, and you are currently living in the U.S., your marriage may qualify you for a Green Card (Lawful Permanent Residence) through a process known as Adjustment of Status (AOS). The first step in the AOS process is to file Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, along with evidence of your “bona fide” (authentic) marriage. If you are living outside of the U.S., you may be eligible through “consular processing” at a U.S. Consulate in your foreign country.
