AOS for F2A
Hi all,
I entered America 3 months ago to visit my sister on B1/B2 visa. My sister sponsored my parents to immigrate to USA, and my parents immigrated here 1 month ago (i was already here). Can I apply for Adjustment of Status in F2A category? I turn 21 in October, my parents are waiting for their Green Cards to arrive, but have a document that acts as a Green card until their Green cards arrive. I lived with and worked for my parents in their daycare business back in the UK. Cheers all

Yes, you can apply.....
Why/how did you have a B1/2 visa?

Time and discretion are very much of the essence.

Having had the visa from before appears favorable. From what OP tells us, an application is possible and might even work. But I see a minefield and a good mine detector and some good legal handholding is called for.

Adjusting status from a B is not exactly uncommon.

One wonders if you informed the officer that you had parents that were soon to arrive in the US as PRs.
