We do not accept every case. We screen for eligibility before taking on a case, then review the forms and supporting documents before filing. This commitment covers our attorney fee under the Full Attorney agreement; it is not a promise of USCIS approval.
Both services include attorney preparation and review. The difference is who files and handles the case afterward.
Answer the free preliminary questions; no card is needed. If your answers need closer review, we guide you on the next step.

처음 준비를 시작할때부터 최종승인이 나기까지 변호사님의 전문적인 지도와 세심한 배려가 없었다면 이 긴 과정을 버터내지 못했을겁니다. 늘 제 일처럼 꼼꼼하게 서류를 챙겨주시고 불안할때마다 명쾌하게 답변해주셔서 큰 위안이 되었습니다. 제 인생의큰 산을 함께 넘겨주셔서 진심으로 감사드립니다. 앞으로도 많은 사람들에게 희망을 주는 최고의변호사님이 되시기를 응원하겠습니다.From the very start of preparation through to the final approval, I could not have endured this long process without the attorney's professional guidance and careful attention. He handled every document as meticulously as if it were his own matter, and answered clearly whenever I felt anxious, which was a great comfort. Thank you sincerely for climbing this mountain in my life together with me. I will be cheering for you to become the best lawyer, one who gives hope to many people.

Guides written by the law office — who qualifies, what goes in the package, and what happens at the interview.
A step-by-step overview of the U.S. marriage green card process for spouses living in the United States — forms, evidence, interview, and what happens after filing. Written by an immigration law office.
Concurrent filing lets many spouses of U.S. citizens submit the petition and the green card application in one package. Here is who qualifies, what goes in the package, and when you have to wait.
The green card process looks similar, but whether your spouse is a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident changes your category, your timing, and how forgiving the process is. A practical comparison.
Columns attorney Jin D. Cho wrote for a daily newspaper, on marriage green cards. New columns are added as they run.
When a U.S. citizen files a family petition, USCIS also checks how that person got citizenship. What the September 14 denaturalization guidance changed.
Married a U.S. citizen after a tourist visa or ESTA entry? Whether entry statements match later records matters more than waiting 90 days. What USCIS…

Yes. GC4S serves clients in all 50 U.S. states, including Hawaii and Alaska. Immigration law is federal, so our attorney can take your case no matter which state you live in. You can work with our attorney online without visiting our office. Additional shipping charges may apply when mailing documents to or from Hawaii or Alaska. We will explain any additional charge in advance.
The Denial Refund Guarantee applies to the Full Attorney tier ($2,999 — Cho & Associates) only. If USCIS issues a final denial of your case, 100% of the attorney fee is refunded — once per engagement, to your original payment method, within 30 days of our written confirmation of a qualifying claim. Denials issued as a matter of USCIS discretion are covered. Submit a written claim with a copy of the denial notice within 30 days of the date on the denial notice. The refund covers the attorney fee only; USCIS government fees are paid by you directly to USCIS and are non-refundable by law. The guarantee does NOT apply when the denial is caused by facts the client concealed from the attorney — including prior criminal record, fraudulent or fabricated documents, prior immigration violations (e.g. overstay, removal, prior fraud allegations), or any other material fact undisclosed during intake — or by client-initiated withdrawals, abandonment, failure to provide documents or information you could reasonably obtain, requested in writing by USCIS or the attorney, completely and by the deadline, or refusal to follow attorney advice. RFE responses and post-RFE denials are covered, subject to the Retainer Agreement. After a refund the engagement ends; a motion (Form I-290B) or re-filing is available under a separate engagement. The Limited-Scope tier ($1,499 — Cho & Associates) covers the forms selected, prepared, and reviewed by the attorney, package assembly, and filing instructions — you file; it does not include this guarantee. In both tiers, if the engagement ends early — whether you end it or we do — we refund the part of the fee not yet earned under the stage schedule in the agreement.
Yes — in the Full Attorney tier ($2,999), for the standard RFE that USCIS issues for marriage-based cases. We respond within USCIS’s deadline and use evidence already in your file. Highly complex RFEs (e.g. fraud allegations) or RFEs arising from facts not disclosed during screening or intake may need a separate scope, which we’ll quote transparently before any work. The Limited-Scope tier does not include RFE response.
Not everyone needs a separate assessment. Start with the free preliminary check. If individual legal analysis is needed before engagement, we may offer a $200 Case Assessment: follow-up questions, then the attorney’s assessment of whether and how we can proceed, in writing or by phone or video call. Calls are available in English or Korean. We explain this before you pay. If you retain us, the $200 comes off your service fee using the code we provide. It is not an extra cost. Attorney review and application preparation are included in both services; this separate pre-engagement assessment is offered only when needed.
Read the guide →The homepage, free check and questionnaire are available in English, Korean, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese, as are consultations. The official agreement and some payment and account-access screens are in English. Korean–English certified document translations are done in-house and notarized as needed for USCIS. For documents in other languages, documents must be submitted with a USCIS-compliant certified translation that you obtain and upload yourself.
Yes — consular processing through the National Visa Center. Total USCIS/NVC fees are about $1,355 instead of the AOS path’s $2,115–$3,005. Consular processing is provided under a separate engagement with the attorney and is outside the Denial Refund Guarantee.
