    Default What Does it Mean for an I-130 to be Under Review

    Hello,

    According to Aug 2013 visa bulletin. F2A is "Current". http://www.travel.st...letin_6028.html


    The I-130 is still under "review". What are the options?

    Background info (in case it is relevant)

    - Entered US as a visitor (tourist).
    - Overstayed past the visa/i-94.
    - Later married an LPR.
    - Filed i-130 in May 2012.
    - Case is under "initial review" and have always been in the US since entering as a visitor.


    If F2A is current, what does it mean for those who have an I-130 under review and are overstays?

    Can I apply for adjustment of status/I-485? Must an I-130 be "approved" prior to applying for I-485?


    Side question: is there a medical exam required prior to filing an i-485?

    Thanks

    Illegal presence is not forgiven by marriage to a LPR - only a citizen. Was your spouse a citizen at the time of filing for you?
