Re: immigration

What are the ages of her children? and is the father of the children an American Citizen? More information is needed.

Re: immigration

We would need to know a lot more details about your friend's situation in order to determine her possibility of adjusting status and becoming a legal permanent resident. Exactly on what date did she arrive to the USA and with what type of visa? Did she ever submit any application with the immigration service before? What country is she from? Feel free to contact me if you would like to discuss this case further.
