What Visa are you currently going to use to come to the US?

That has bearing if you can AOS. Some visas restrict what you are planning on doing.

My Advice is usually based on "Worst Case Scenario" and what is written in the rules/laws/instructions. That is the way I roll... -Protect your Status - file before your I-94 expires.

WARNING: Phrases in this post may sound meaner than they were intended to be. Read the Adjudicator's Field Manual from USCIS

Sounds like you have a B1/B2 and usually travel to the US with B1 for BUSINESS.

B1 is a non-immigrant visa.

If you come on vacation here, you will be under a tourist visa or the visa waiver program.

Anyway, it is a mute point, because none of these visas can be converted so you cannot stay here and adjust status without being illegal. You HAVE TO leave the country by the date written on your I-94 (the white paper you get when you enter the US).

What you need is a H-1 or better, a L-1 visa (intra-company transfer), though the latter would require you work for the same company here in the US as your company abroad. Seems you are not working for DoD but for a contractor.

You need to get your company to sponsor you for H-1 or L-1. And that's an entirely different story!

If I understand correctly, the OP is working for DoD as a contractor overseas.

He has received a B1 visa to travel to the US for some reason.

He has a sister who is a LPR in the US.

He wants to Adjust status based on this?

Answer: NO, it can't be done = you can't adjust status through LPR and stay in the US. Better stay at your well paying job.
