I filed the Form I-130 separately from I-485? Can I file my I-485 now, how do I do this?
Answer:
Filing the I-130 separately from the I-485 complicates your application and can lead to delays. The delay usually occurs since the I-130 will most likely be sent to National Visa Center (NVC) expecting an immigrant visa – which you have not filed and will not be filing.
YOUR NEXT STEPS
1. Find your Notice of Action from the original I-130 you filed.
2. Email it to us at support@tnvisaexpert.com so we can review your situation and verify how you can proceed.
In most cases you can start filing your Adjustment of Status, but you will need to ensure you have the correct supporting documentation.
