Adjustment of Status from Student Visa to Green Card

I am currently in United States on Student Visa (F1). My mother who is green card holder had applied for my GC with a priority date of January 2010. Current priority date is showing as 22 December 2008 on Visa bulletin.

However, i recently received a notice from NVC at my Nairobi address and my mother got same letter at her US address with NVC case number and Invoice ID number. I believe that since i am already in US, i dont have to go through NVC for processing this but need to wait for date to become current and apply for adjustment of status.

Can someone please guide me with the steps? Do i need to hire attorney now or later? I am bIt confused since I am already in United States.

Yes, if you are still in status in the US at the time a visa number is available for your priority date, you can just file for Adjustment of Status.
