The I -360 is used to file for USCIS approval for a rel*gious worker visa so that a m*ssionary can stay and work permanently in the US.   It is the first step in the process.   After the I-360 is approved, the m*ssionary has to then proceed to file for the issuance of the green card (Adjustment of Status) if he is in the U.S.   If he is abroad, he must file at a consulate for an immigrant visa to come to the US to stay.

However, the USCIS has been slowing down in its processing of about everything.   This one took eight months, which is, in my opinion, pretty good right now.   And what is especially nice, it was approved without any annoying follow-up requests for additional paperwork!
