Topic2 I-130 and I-485 concurrently?

I-130 and I-485 concurrently?

Hello...
I am confused about filing I-130 and I-485 concurrently. Please help me.
Both of my parents and my brother live abroad currently. Do I have to file I-130 and I-485 concurrently for them now? And, what else?
My sister is currently in the US. Again, do I have to file I-130 and I-485 concurrently for her now? And, what else?
Thanks !!!!

hey Tun_001,

Well you cant file concurrently for your brother or your sister (first of all). Now, you can file concurrently for your mother....IF she is in United States. You cannot file I-485 for her, if she is abroad. I-485 is to adjust status within United States.

Lemme ask you couple of questions: Are you US citizen? Are your brother and sister older than 21? Shed some light on your situation so the senior members can advice you appropriately.

Good Day.

I am being filled for along with my married mother and father and younger sister by my grandmother.

Our priority date is Sept. 21, 2001 and my mom and sis are overseas. My mom is overseas for about 7 years n my sis for 4. They would need to have their status adjusted, however, once our priority date becomes current, is their a dead line for us to get the AOS going in terms of paper work? We are aware of the cost but wanted to know how long we have to gather the funds for the AOS because of the high fees...

they cant adjust their status if they are not in the US in legal status.
Are you in the US legally?
