Hey guys,

I'm a little unsure on the following question:

22. Complete the information below if your relative is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status.

Your relative is in the United States and will apply for adjustment of status to that of a lawful permanent resident at the USCIS office in:

If your relative is not eligible for adjustment of status, he or she will apply for a

visa abroad at the American consular post in:

___________________________________________________________ ________________________________________ __________________________________________

(City) (State) (City) (Country)

So, I'm from the UK, and I'm currently in the US, and I'm applying for adjustment of status.

So what am I putting in what boxes? I'm sure its something very basic, however, it appears the way the box and text is set out is very awkward.

Thanks in advance!!

The text hasn't come out how it appears on the form unfortunately, so hopefully someone will be able to look a the form and let me know! I appreciate it!

Your local USCIS office in the US. You can find the list of those on USCIS website, and type in your zip code to find out which is the closest to you.

Be careful, some areas have multiple USCIS local offices within a close proximity that have widely varying processing times (ie, New York vs. Newark). Choose the one that will process your app the quickest, even if it is a little further away from your home.

He cannot choose where his application is processed. USCIS will assign it to a field office, which in most cases will be the closest to the applicant, but sometimes can be another office in the same area.

What's the point of specifying the local office (or consulate) if it is all determined based on your zip code or country?

Absolutely false. You cannot choose which office you go to. It is regulated by your location and you cannot cross state lines. If you are closer to NY than Newark, but you live in NJ, you go to Newark.
