Indian Adjustment of Status (Spouse, Parents, Work-Based) June 2026

Indian Adjustment of Status (Spouse, Parents, Work-Based) June 2026
Are you an Indian national trying to get a green card inside the U.S.? Everything changed on May 22, 2026, when USCIS quietly dropped a bombshell memo that threw out decades of adjustment of status standards and if you're on an H-1B, L-1, student visa, tourist visa, or you're a parent who just wants to stay close to your kids, this video is your most important watch right now. Immigration attorney John Khosravi breaks down exactly what this new policy means for Indian nationals specifically: who's still getting approved, who's at risk, whether you should still file or pivot to consular processing, why the fiancΓ© visa might now make sense even though attorneys hate it, and the critical Indian civil document mistakes (birth certificates, parents' names, missing registration stamps) that quietly kill green card cases before they even start. With field offices handling this memo inconsistently, embassy processing in India notoriously unpredictable, and rules changing every 12 hours under this administration, you cannot afford to make a move without watching this first. This is the most up-to-date, India-specific green card breakdown you'll find online as of June 2026. π [FREE E-book] Ultimate Marriage Green Card Guide Download the No-Cost Guide here: https://www.MarriageImmigrationLaw.com Timestamps: 00:00 Indian Adjustment of Status (Spouse, Parents, Work-Based) June 2026 00:37 The May 22, 2026 USCIS Memo Explained 00:57 What Factors Officers Are Considering Now 01:17 Real Results: Pending Indian Cases After the Memo 02:09 What to Do If Your Case Is Already Filed 02:25 H-1B & L-1 Visa Holders: Where Things Stand 02:44 Student Visa Holders: Should You Still File? 03:05 Tourist Visa Holders: The Hardest Call 03:35 Why Parents Stay β And the Risk That Comes With It 04:12 FiancΓ© Visa vs. Adjustment of Status: Pros & Cons 05:13 How to Prepare for Your Adjustment of Status Interview 05:55 Civil Documents for Indian Nationals: What You Need 06:29 Common Birth Certificate Problems From India 07:24 Consular Processing in India: The Inconsistency Problem 07:57 Final Advice & How to Schedule a Consultation βοΈ Thinking of getting a lawyer?

Canadian Marriage Green Cards in June 2026
The rules just changed and if you or your spouse is applying for a U.S. marriage green card in 2026, this video could save your case. On May 22, 2026, USCIS dropped a vague but major policy update that throws years of precedent out the window, giving officers sweeping discretion to deny adjustment of status applications. Marriage immigration attorney John Khosravi breaks down exactly what this means for Canadians and foreign spouses on tourist visas, student visas, TNs, H-1Bs, and more including whether you should still file inside the U.S. or pivot to consular processing, why the K-1 fiancΓ© visa is suddenly back on the table, how dual citizenship could trigger administrative processing delays, and the specific Canadian police certificate mistake that gets applications rejected.
