I 130, I 131, I485, I765
Hi everyone,
I am spouse of lawful permanent resident. i have pending I 130 (vermount service centre) filed by my wife a year ago while i was outside usa in my home country. current status shows that they are actively reviewing my case as of february 2022. i am currently in USA in B2 visitor visa. because of some family condition i have to stay with my wife. so can i apply for adjustment of status now? how long does it take to receive EAD and travel permit after applying for status of adjustment?
If anyone have been through this phase please help me suggesting how you did it. Thank you #I130, #I485, #I765 and I131

that’s not a good idea to stay
1. your wife is a green card holder, after your b2 visa time is expired, you cannot do an AOS; unless she becomes a citizen
2. the length of time it takes to process an application ( you will be out of status in 6 months, waiting periods are lengthy)
3. the wait is frustrating and negatively on your mental health
4. you are not allowed to work, legally.

@ lady d is correct Is you fall out of status while waiting you won't be able to adjust your status..

@lady D if i apply for AOS before my visa expiry and wait for my EAD and Advance Parol will there be risk to get my green card?

check out the Boundless Ask My Attorney Subscription - 25$ month and unlimited 15 min calls with lawyer- great for questions like this. I’ve used it twice this week

@ J R your visa will expire before you get EAD, have you checked the waiting periods, have you not seen the backlogs and numerous complaints on this platform. See Morgan’s post, I’m not qualified to speak on these matters, please direct your questions to an immigration lawyer.
