Immigration Site

I am 20 years of age, had political asylum through my family before and left the country. My mother divorced my father while in the USA and got married to an american citizen on March 2006. I am in the US for vacations right now and to visit my family (I entered as a tourist). My mother will soon receive her GC, but she has to go through some sort of interview on thursday. Am I eligible to adjust my status from tourist to son of GC holder. If so how long is the wait?? Will I be able to live in the US while I wait for my GC legally? Thanks

Your mother married before you were 18? Than your mothers husband is your new father. He needs to file i-130, I-485, ect. for you ASAP so that they are considered before you are 21.

Thanks for the reply, after reading all the info on the I 130 form I realized that he could act as my stefather. I turn 21 in November. As long as they stamp it as received before the date I turn 21 I am good right? Also, if its my stepfather (american citizen) doing the petition for me are we talking about a speedy or lenghty process? Thanks for your help!

Ask him to file everything for you NOW. And do not leave the country until the process is over. As soon as he files for you you are in "legal waiting" status.
