If that was the last letter received then contact the consulate that it was sent with your case number. Did you or your father ever fill out DS-3032 Choice of Agent form?

Your options depend partly on your current status. If you are in the US now on a legal visa, you may be able to adjust your status in the country. Consult with a qualified immigration attorney to understand if this is an option as well as all of the requirements and timing.

And so after I submit adjustment of status can I leave the country for a couple of weeks?
