Hello All. We're looking for some advice on how to change my mother-in-law status here in the US from Venezuela. In October 2021, my husband filed form I-130 for his mom's permanent residency, and we've been waiting for it to get approved since then. In late November of this year, his mom entered the US under Venezuelan humanitarian parole, however, today we received notice that the I-130 was approved. Now we are trying to figure out what we need to do for her to adjust status. Do we need to file the I-485 with any other paperwork? Also, do we need to contact NVC to have them send the case back to USCIS for processing? Finally, I've noticed processing times for EAD/AP are at six plus months for AOS, however, under humanitarian parole, it appears approvals are happening within six weeks. Is it easier to just apply for those under humanitarian parole first before submitting I-485, or just have all paperwork submitted with the I-485 for simplicity sake?
Thanks!
