Overstaying can lead to unlawful presence, which can result in inadmissibility for future U.S. entries. Ensure that you file for Adjustment of Status well before your authorized stay expires if possible.

One of the most daunting aspects for H1B visa holders during the green card application process is maintaining legal status, especially when facing the lengthy processing times of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

Unlike other nonimmigrant visa holders, H-1B professionals do not require Advance Parole to travel abroad and return while an adjustment application is pending. They can re-enter the U.S. with a valid H-1B visa without jeopardizing their status.
