Entry: I entered the United States without inspection (EWI). I did not receive parole at the border. • Unlawful Presence: I have 84 days of unlawful presence total. I have NOT accumulated 180+ days. Therefore, I understand that I do not trigger the 3- or 10-year bar if I leave. • Current Status / History: – I filed for asylum one week after arriving in the U.S. – My asylum case is pending in Immigration Court (EOIR). – My Individual Hearing is scheduled for September 2026 in San Francisco. – Judge’s approval rate is around 67%. – I have no criminal record, no traffic violations. – I currently have a valid EAD and SSN. – I pay taxes regularly. • Marriage / I-130: – I am married to a U.S. citizen. – My spouse is a U.S. citizen by birth. – We live together and have substantial evidence of a bona fide marriage. – I filed I-130 on May 25, 2025 (187 days ago). • Goal: I want to adjust status inside the U.S. through the Immigration Judge (not consular processing). I do not want to leave the U.S. I want to file I-485 with the court once eligible.
