I had the same scenario and my lawyer told me to wait for my green card.I’m really debating here… I was verbally approved 3/22 so it should be near but my daughter is already 21 and I can apply with i130 and get it done … not sure if it’s better to pull the case from court and start USCIS process or to wait for the formal grant
If you start a process with your child, you will have to apply for an I130 and another I485.
The I130 is taking almost 1 year to process (based on child over 21) and only after that i130 is approved uscis will start working on your i485 (another year of processing) which puts you back into another 2 years of wait (or close to it).
Stay put, pray for patience and everything will be alright!
I’m not a lawyer and I’m not giving legal advice. I’m only repeating what I was told by my lawyer under the same circumstances.
