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
