She can not apply for Adjustment of Status until her priority date becomes current, it might be the filing date or the final action date depending on what USCIS and DHS consider best depending on the number of applicants. Right now is the Filing Date, and has been stuck at November 01, 2016 for several Visa Bulletins.
