I was admitted to US on a K3 visa but the I 130 filed by my spouse was twice denied due to AWA. Now my daughter who is a US citizen has filed a new I I30 on my behalf and I filed the I485. Will I be able to adjust my status in US or do I have to go through consular processing? I have not been in removal proceeding. Thanks.

Are you in the US legally? What is your current status now?

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.

After the denial of I 485 based on my spouse petition, I filed a new I 485 based on my daughter petition as I was out of status. I entered US legally but now I have an I 485 pending. My interview is in 10 days.

Was your 130 from your daughter appoved? Usually you have to have that done prior to the 485 being approved.

If you were legally in the US when the 130 was approved - you can AOS - but if your not, you have to consulate interview.

The issue is that if you were "out of status" - then you were not "legally" in the US.

Please let us know how the interview goes - this is a strange case - but it's a good sign they are doing an interview.
