I am Unmarried daughter (21 or older) of USC, 203(a)(1) INA at time of filing.

There is no visa number available.  Now, you might be on ICE's radar.  

Personally, I would marry asap and file a marriage-based I-485.

Leave it unanswered, leave the country  and let them consider it abandoned? 

It's already DOA.  This was an expensive mistake.

@Willowsedit, I would like to add..l I believe your EAD is not valid. 
if you are working I would stop right now. 
Other members can confirm this information is correct… but you are in a very precarious situation right now.

 

if possible can you share your timeline 

When did you file the i130? 
when did you file adjustment? 
when did you enter the US? 
when did your relationship start? Before you entered the US or after?

How did your partner obtain US citizenship? 
… and when did your brother file his adjustment? 

 

the more I think about it. The more I think you should definitely hire a lawyer to help you.

Hello- 

 

I hope your case is going well. I just wanted to ask you a quick question, if I may. Was your brother under 21 when you filed the I-485? You mentioned you filed them months apart and I was just curious if filing the i-130 before 21 would make it ok to adjust status within a year of the priority date, even after the beneficiary turned 21.
