Hi,
My I-130 was filed and approved when my spouse was a permanent resident. She is now naturalized to a US citizen and I have applied I-485 for adjustment of status, mentioning myself as a spouse of a US citizen, in all the documents sent. I was in US when I-130 was filed and am still in the US at the moment. Preference category in the receipt of I-485 acceptance I received after filing I-485 is F2A category. This is probably my I-130 was filed as a spouse of LPR. I requested to upgrade I-130 in the cover letter of I-485.
1. Do I have to make a request for the upgrade separately?
2. How do I request USCIS to upgrade my I-130 to be considered as an immediate relative of a US citizen for adjustment of status? What documents are needed?
3. My spouse changed her name during naturalization and has the name change confirmation letter from the court. Where do I send that letter to update information for my petition?
I tried to explore the forums for upgrading I-130 petition but am a bit confused. Can someone please help me.
Thank you in advance.
