I saw this on uscis website. If one wants to file now, September 2023 priority date folks can do that. But I’m confused. So many conflicting info. See link below https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/green-card-processes-and-procedures/visa-availability-priority-dates/when-to-file-your-adjustment-of-status-application-for-family-sponsored-or-employment-based-98

Yes, you are correct, the I-130 is still pending. I came on a TN visa into the US in October 2023. The child was not born when we filed the I-130. I thought we could do his adjustment of status together with mine as he is a derivative. So, you are saying adjustment of status can not be done until your priority date is current? I assumed I could do adjustment of status and get an advanced parole or work authorization while waiting for the green card already Thanks

Why do you say so, if I may ask?

Hi house, My husband (a LPR) petitioned for a I-130 for me in December 2022 which is unapproved as of today. At the time, I was pregnant. As of today, we have a baby boy who is almost 1 year old and we are in the US on a TN visa (TD visa for my boy). Question: Does this affect our I-130 in any way? I am asking this because if we were outside the US, we would have applied for a green card from abroad but now, we will be doing an AOS. Do we need to do anything such as inform USCIS as regards the I-130? Thanks

Coming back here to update the situation for anyone who needs it. I used the TN visa route and I was granted entry into the US. Note that I have an unapproved I-130 which the border officials saw on uscis’s website at the port of entry. If for anything, it’s worth a trial. The worst you’ll get is a rejection.

Hello house, I am a citizen of Canada and my spouse is a LPR of the US. We’re currently waiting for approval of our I-130 from my husband’s application for me. Do you know if I will be granted a T4N visa if I look for a job in the US? Or should I kill this option entirely and just focus on my F2A? I know the F2A might take a while and that is why I’m thinking of the T4N route. Thanks

Hi everyone. I am still waiting for my I-30 approval (F2A) which we expect to arrive before the end of the year. I plan to be outside the country for the next couple of months so, I figured doing the police certificate would be proactive for when I want to apply for the green card after I-130 approval (I’m not sure if this is required in the next step or until interview stage which is still a long way from now). Do I request for the canada-wide name check(certificate of no conviction) or the full fingerprint version? Note that I have not been convicted of any crime in the past. Thanks

The header is quite misleading. Back story- petitioner is actually a LPR and not a USC. My profile on VJS was errorneously categorized as IR1/CR1 but has been updated to F2A now.

Alright

Thanks. This was very helpful. I will update my profile also

Hello house. My spouse submitted an application in December 2022 to file for me and we had our baby in 2023. We mentioned in the application that we we’re expecting a baby and attached scans as proof. Our baby does not require a visa to visit the US. What do you advise? Should we 1. Send an additional documentation to add our baby to the application?( I’m not sure how this is done. If yes, how do we go about this?) 2. Should we wait till my application is all complete so we can do an adjustment of status for the baby when we relocate to the US since he can enter the US with his passport as a visitor without requiring a visa? Thanks

Thanks

Hello house. My husband (a green card holder) submitted the I-130 form on December 19,2022 and we received the NOA1 confirming receipt on the same day. How do I know which service center is processing my I-130? The first three letters of my receipt number is IOE. Any other person has the same issue?
