Confusion Over Current Immigration Status on Form I-765
Le Problème
Applicants adjusting status from a K-1 visa to permanent residency often struggle with how to correctly identify their 'current immigration status' on Form I-765. Misunderstanding this field can lead to processing delays or requests for evidence (RFE).
Solution
Applicants are advised to consult the specific instructions for the I-765 form or seek guidance from community forums to see how others in the same adjustment of status phase filled out the section. Generally, referencing the underlying visa status while noting the pending I-485 is common practice.
For the question that asks for my “current immigration status or category” in Part 25, I’m not sure whether to select “K-1” or another option.
