I have received Biometric appointments for all the family except one of my children. What can I do about it?Calm your anxiety and wait for the mail to arrive. You’ll find out soon enough what they both contain.
Is there something I must do now or how long before the others may have their cards issued, please? Kindly advise me.Quite normal.
Hmmm...thank you @Sm1smomYou just need to be patient.
You’ll need to spend some quality time going over the information readily available on USCIS’s website for this. You can start by going through this link. I’m sorry I’m unable to provide the type of support I provide for DV based AOS applications for a family based AOS, the information needed for a family based filing are readily available on USCIS’s website.Hello @Sm1smom, what are the documents needed to file for I-485 if I am marrying a U.S citizen please? I am not going to hire a lawyer and want to file on my own. It would be much appreciated if you can guide me.
@Sm1smom my wife and daughter's EAD combo was delivered on Thursday but for some strange reasons I could not find them among the mails in the mailbox. Please what are my options? the entire family is devastated because we have waited for this soooooo long..{crying}
@Sm1smom, It turned out that the USPS delivered to the wrong address. Upon filing a complaint they were able to retrieve and deliver to us. Thank you so much for your assistance.Employment Authorization Document | USCIS

Look at the section that says “Replace an EAD”
1. No. The Adjustment of Status filing chart is not current for the F2A category right now. You would have to file I-130 first and I-485 can only be filed when the date on the Adjustment of Status filing chart passes the priority date (I-130 filing date). Why didn't you guys file earlier. In this August and earlier, I-130 and I-485 could have been filed together.Hello, I need your input and suggestion. I am a green card holder here in the US. I got my green card July 2022. I got married to my wife who is an F1 student on December 2022. She is about to graduate and her OPT has just been approved effective from January 2024
1. Can we file I-130 along with I-485, I-765 and I-131 right now
2. What is our best option moving forward that will keep her in the United State with me
Thank you
I am also in a similar situation here. I am LPR about to file an I-130 for my wife. Let's say I file I-130 in December and VB becomes current in Feb or April 2024, should I have to wait until her I-130 is approved before filing I-485? Or can we file I-485 with the receipt notice of I-130 while I-130 is still pending? This situation has been confusing to navigate, any advice is highly appreciated.1.

2. She can work on OPT and maintain F1 status and hope that she will be able to file I-485 before her status ends. Otherwise she will have to switch to Consular Processing abroad.
You do not have to wait until I-130 is approved. You can file I-485 when I-130 is pending, with a copy of the I-130 receipt, as long as your priority date can file I-485 according to the USCIS Adjustment of Status filing chart.I am also in a similar situation here.

Thank you so much @newacct . I will move forward with I-130. BTW, is there any exhaustive Excel sheet or any information document within this forum, that I can refer to navigate this process of I-130 and I-485? Just wondering because there was one really helpful Excel sheet for DV AOS cases.You do not have to wait until I-130 is approved.
