HELP!! Extension - I130 - AOS

[pinayinFL 0]

My parents are on a B1 visa till March 15, 2023.

On January 11, 2023,  I applied for the I130 for both online. I thought I could send the I-1485 online at the same time.

I went ahead and sent my I-130 online.

Q: Should I send I485 by mail now or should I wait for I130 to get approved?

Also, do I also need to apply for an extension for my parents while waiting for the I-130 approval?

I felt like there was a mistake in my process. Please tell me how I should proceed.

Thank you so much for your help!

You should have filed I-485 with I-130.

 

File their I-485s (and I-131s, I-765s, I-864s, and I-693s) ASAP and include a copy of the I-130 receipt with each filing. Schedule the medicals today. 

 

The I-485 receipts will be evidence that their authorized stay is extended until their I-485 case is decided.

 

Applying for a B visa extension is waste of time, .

Hi,

So, to be clear. I have to do I495 and !-765 and I693 at the same time? Sorry for all the questions.

You do I-485, I-131, I-765, I-864, and I-693 at the same time, in one package per parent sent via USPS priority mail to  USCIS

 

If you file I-485 without:

* I-131, your parents will not be able to leave the U.S. while I-485 is pending. Every week someone posts on this web site or others that they didn't file I-131 because they didn't think they needed it, and now they have a personally emergency that requires travel, and how can they expedite, etc.

* I-765, your parents will might have difficulty getting photo ID or a drivers license while I-485 is pending. Also won't be able to work, and will have to wait until they get a green card to get an SSN. This can complicate getting health care insurance.

* I-864: I-485 might be denied

* I-693: this will delay their I-485 cases if USCIS wants to waive interview

i-485, i-765, i-131 and i-693 all in each package.

One package for your mon and one package for your dad.

*** Moved from Bringing Family of USC forum to AOS from Work/Student/Tourist Visas forum -- topic is about AOS of parents already in the US ***

just filing alone for I 130 means going home and interview in home country/ its not to stay legally in the US

OP, your parents do not have to leave the US and wait for the I-130 approval. Just send in the rest of the forms with the I-130 receipt as already answered by a couple of other members above, and your parents can remain in the US to complete the process.
