All, DOS and USCIS made some changes in the Visa bulletin. Per DOS, the current cutoff date of F2A applicants is 15APR14 whereas USCIS says you can file I-485 if your priority date is before 01APR15. This has made me major confused. Anyone knows what we are supposed to make of this? Your suggestions are highly appreciated!! P.S: here is the october visa bulletin link: http://travel.state.gov/conten...

@gaurav: she can file her i485 if her priority date is current, no need to wait for i130 approval.

I-485 ko lagi what are the documents we needed. Please list the forms and documents.Thanks

@ Rajababu0, yes you can apply now as you PD falls inside the cutoff date per the visa bulletin. @Gaurav123, Dude sorry to be mean but all you need to do is google. There are hundreds to immigration blogs that have the info. Also ,if you do some due diligence, you can find the information in USCIS website. http://www.uscis.gov/i-485 : Look for Instructions for Form i485 Cheers! Last edited: 27-Sep-15 10:18 AM

My priority date is May 25, 2014 under F2A. I called USCIS today to make sure if I could file for the adjustment of status, but the customer service had no idea about it and said I should file I485 after the visa number is available. So, still confused if we can actually file I485? Also I have my I130 approved under an old passport, and now I have a NEW passport with a new number, so are we supposed to file with the new passport or old one? Any ideas would be highly appreciated!
