I am not as familiar with an adjustment from TPS, do you not need to file I-485 in this scenario, only I-130?

21/2 - received NOA in mail for all 4 (130/485/765/131)

23/3 - biometrics scheduled -> did "early" walk-in on 21 March

06/4 - received email update, interview scheduled for 7th May

27/4 - received EAD

08/5 - email: approval one day after interview (7th May)

TPS is a temporary benefit that does not lead to lawful permanent resident status or give any other immigration status. However, registration for TPS does not prevent you from:

Applying for nonimmigrant status

Filing for adjustment of status based on an immigrant petition

Applying for any other immigration benefit or protection for which you may be eligible

http://www.uscis.gov/tps

Like any other person that entered the US legally, TPS can adjust status based on marriage to a US citizen while in the US by filing I-130 and I-485, separately, or concurrently.

Both...My husband is the petitioner for the I 130 and I am doing the I 485 status adjustment.

Yes,that's what I am doing :)

Wait?

:D I guess you're right.

And then wait.... :rofl:

Seriously though - look at my sig and you will see what is next. :thumbs:

:D You received your interview notice about a week and a half after your biometric appointment??
