MY question is if my sister filed from the usa and im in the usa, will I have to go back home to get my papers? Plz help me understand

if you have your visa number available, your priority date become current, you can do the adjustment of status in the States. So, it's not necessary to go back home to finish the process

ONLY if the OP is in the current legal status - no visa overstay.

Myafi1985! You are absolutely wrong...he can adjust his status only as if he were sponsored by his spouse here. The NVC knows what the laws is about.

I totally agreed with milimelo, you can't adjust within the us unless your spouse sponsored you or have a current legal status.

siblings don't qualify to adjust status in the us, unless they are here under a legal visa or qualify under the 245i law. you don't qualify for neither, so you will have your interview in your country and incur in a 10 year ban.

Actually if she was petitioned on or before 30th April 2001 then she would qualify for a 245(i) adjustment.

Alternatively, she would be able to do an in-country adjustment if she is now in a legal status and has no previous overstay issues.

We can't help you understand unless you make US understand. What type of visa are you here with? How long have you been here?

you are wrong, anybody can adjust his/her status to a permanent resident if he/she is in a legal status and and his/her PD becomes current

I was not wrong, maybe I forget to complete the answer.

A professor would mark an incomplete answer as wrong. A big red X.

BTW, I am still laughing at your responds. LOL

Not exactly...A good professor who understands that knowledge is NOT absolute/perfect and that we are all striving for 'perfect answers' will give the student 'credit' for at least trying! That's why there is the 'curve' in grading.
