Your case will mirror your mother's case.. you're eligible to update your status when she is.... seem as thou u followed your mother after she had already arrived in the u.s.a.

on the form I got with my greencard stated something about 3months when i arrive here I should adjust status 0.o

I don't know whose status I am taking because it was my step-dad that filed for me and not my biological mother.

This is what I know is about the CR-1 to IR-1 process. You file to change status 90 days BEFORE your conditional residency expires, so that's 3 months before the second anniversary of your arrival in the US. I THINK it's the same for CR-2 to IR-2, but I could be wrong.

This is correct. Only if the child arrives within 90 days of the parent, do they remove conditions at the same time. Following after 90 days means a separate process. It's not called changing status but a change of status from C to I does occur. This is done during the 90 days prior to the expiration of the conditional status/expiration date of the green card, not within 90 days of arrival.
