Certain international broadcaster (Form I-360)

Special immigrant international broadcasters generally work for the International Broadcasting Bureau of the U.S.

Broadcasting Board of Governors (or its grantee) as reporters, writers, translators, editors, producers, analysts, hosts, or

announcers for news broadcasts.

If you are filing your Form I-485 under the special immigrant international broadcaster category, you may not file your

Form I-485 until USCIS first approves your Form I-360 and a visa is available immediately.

Certain G-4 international organization or NATO-6 employee or family member (Form I-360)

Special immigrant G-4 or NATO-6 employees or family members include: retired officers or employees of an

international organization or NATO (and spouses), surviving spouses of deceased officers or employees of an international

organization or NATO, and unmarried sons or daughters of current or retired officers or employees of an international

organization or NATO.

If a visa is immediately available, a special immigrant G-4 international organization or NATO-6 employee or family

member does not have to wait until Form I-360 is approved to file Form I-485. If a visa is immediately available, you

may file your Form I-485 together with your Form I-360, while your Form I-360 is pending, or after your Form I-360 is

approved. Otherwise, you may file your Form I-485 only after your Form I-130 is approved and a visa is immediately

available. See the When Should I File Form I-485 section above for more information.

Additional Evidence Requirements

As a special immigrant G-4 international organization or NATO-6 employee or family member, you must submit evidence

showing you meet certain requirements specific to this immigrant category. Therefore, in addition to the evidence listed in

the What Evidence Must You Submit with Form I-485 section, the principal applicant must also submit:

1. A copy of every page of your passport and any other document showing residence and physical presence in the U.S.

for the required time period (see

for more information); and

2. Evidence that you maintained your G-4, N, or NATO-6 nonimmigrant status since your last entry into the United States.

Additional Instructions for Human Trafficking Victims and Crime Victims

Human trafficking victim (T Nonimmigrant, Form I-914) or derivative family member (Form I-914A)

You may apply to adjust status under INA section 245(l) if you are a victim of human trafficking who was admitted to

the United States in T nonimmigrant status, maintained continuous physical presence for the required period of time, are

a person of good moral character, and have complied with reasonable requests to assist law enforcement authorities in

the investigation or prosecution of acts of trafficking, would suffer extreme hardship involving unusual and severe harm

upon removal from the United States or were under 18 years of age at the time of the victimization that qualified you for

T nonimmigrant status. Special confidentiality protections (described at 8 U.S.C. section 1367) apply to you as a human

trafficking victim. 8 U.S.C. section 1367 provides two forms of critical protection for human trafficking victims. The first

form of protection is a prohibition on adverse determinations against the victim based on information provided solely by

their abuser and other prohibited sources. The second form of protection is a prohibition on disclosure of any information

about the victim to third parties, except in certain very limited circumstances.

If you are a principal applicant (T-1 nonimmigrant), you may file Form I-485 only after you have been in the United States

for the following time period, whichever is less:
