which do you want?

an immigrant visa

or

adjustment of status ?

pick one or the other, follow the paperwork for the one you've chosen.

Much depends, really, on 'where' the interview will be held (which country) as to 'what thing' you are hoping to obtain.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

I was told to file a 'petition for alien relative' I-130 for child of spouse unmarried under the age of 21, by an Immigration Officer, and an Immigration Lawyer. Nothing else. If I've done it wrong, i guess they'll let me know.

The interview will be in Kansas City, that is our nearest Field Office as per question 22 on the I-130, which states which office she will apply for adjustment of status to a lawful permanent resident.

OK - usually, unless have specific instructions 'not to' -

if a legal alien is IN the USA, an AOS packet (I-130 + I-485 plus supporting forms) is filed concurrently, in parallel, at the same time. In/Out between 3 to 5 months. IMO, yer in for a longer clock, when handling things 'serially'.

Good Luck !

Yes I've since read that once the I-130 is approved, that we will apply for I-485 and I-864.

Good luck Aljenca!
