What Form I-485J is for

Used in certain employment-based adjustment cases to confirm a bona fide job offer or request job portability.

Confirmation of Bona Fide Job Offer or Request for Job Portability (I-485J) is generally filed by applicants seeking, adjusting, or replacing lawful permanent resident status. Whether this form fits your situation depends on your specific facts, so confirm the current eligibility rules on the official USCIS page before you file.

Fees and official sources

USCIS filing fees change periodically and vary by category, age, and filing method. We do not quote government fees from memory. Always verify the current I-485J filing fee, payment method, and any form-specific fee rules on the official USCIS page before you submit.

Processing times for I-485J vary widely by service center, workload, and case complexity, and they change month to month. Check current estimates with the USCIS processing-times tool and your receipt notice rather than relying on a fixed number. Filing a complete, well-organized packet is the best way to avoid Requests for Evidence that add delay.

USCIS government fees are separate from Asal preparation fees. Verify current fees on USCIS.gov.
