Consular Processing vs. Adjustment of Status: Which is Right for You? http://www.latpro.com/cms/en/recruiter/consular_processing_vs_adjustment_of_status_which_is_right_for_you

Consular processing and adjustment of status are two means to the same end: obtaining permanent resident status in the United States. If you opt for consular processing, you would apply for an immigrant visa through the Department of State and must attend an interview at a U.S. Consulate in your country of residence abroad. If you opt for adjustment of status, on the other hand, you would remain in the United States and file an application with USCIS. Because these two separate agencies each have their own procedures and set of governing rules, there are pros and cons to both options. You should therefore take various considerations into account before making what is often a difficult decision.
