INA §245(i) permits applicants who entered the United States without inspection to apply for adjustment of status in the United States instead of having to go through consular processing in the applicant’s home country, provided a qualifying relative filed a proper, legally sound I-130 petition before April 30, 2001. All applicants must pay a $1000.00 penalty fee. Persons who applied between January 14, 1998 and April 30,2001, must provide proof that they were in the United States on December 21, 2000.
