Hi Triple, would you please explain how would it help Sunriser's case?

Triple Citizen probably was wrongly thinking that sunriser's husband would become a USC within 8 months.

But the reality is her husband can only APPLY for citizenship in 8 months, so actual citizenship may be a year away. And him having citizenship and proof if it (naturalization certificate or US passport) is required before she can apply for AOS.
 
Can someome help me to understand what the additional review means
I got a letter from uscis local office Miami FL

Can anyone verify whether LPR's spouse who is in the US on H1-B can file I-485 when visa number is available even if I-130 is pending?

Thanks!

I-485 is filed by the intending immigrant - not by the petitioner. So, based on an approved I-130, a spouse of an LPR can file the I-485 if the visa number is available, assuming the spouse entered and has been in the US legally.
