How have you been... Your case involves a I-485...? I thought your case category was F2A..? Did the petition upgrade to the US Citizen category (IR1/CR1)? OR is the applicant legally in the USA so that AOS route could be taken. ..?

Hi Ricardo,

Its good to hear from you again. Long time no talk. I saw that you are now a Citizen congrats!! I am happy for you :) My case is in fact still in F2A catagory its still in. However as you may remember my dad died. My boyfriend at the time was really the only person who has been able to keep my head up and really to be honest the only person who has been consoling after my dad died. He asked me to move in with him because I was always alone in my sisters house and it wasnt helping me much. Its emberassing to say but I think I was really getting into depression. He asked me to marry him and I ofcourse said yes. He told me that with him being a US Citizen he can file for me and so thats what he did. We have called and asked bbut they say not to worry because the other petition gets voided. Anyway, with that said yes my case involves an I-485. He was told by an Immigration Officer who happens to be a neighbor that he needs to file both forms together. So thats what we did.

I know that your brother was also same catagory as me, if I remember correctly... How is everything going??
