Nope. Adjust from a tourist visa or visa waiver is only allowed if no prior intent exists. IE if you were already here and for some reason your circumstances changed.

You will need to follow the normal visa process. You can use VWP to visit in the meantime.

How long does this take? and could i remain in the USA until its complete?

you can stay in the US as long as you file I 130 and adjustment of status before your 90 days are over

from there it took about 3 month to the interview,

follow the instructions on uscis.gov website , do it your self is easy

my wife is american and filed for my son which is considered a relative I am German national

easy easy easy !!!!!! just costly

FloridaBoy, this is not true. To enter the US on a non-immigrant visa with the intent to immigrate is illegal. To suggest this purposeful course of action is also against the Terms of Service for this site - because it is illegal.

AOS for my husband
8/17/10: INTERVIEW DAY (day 123) APPROVED!!

ROC:
5/23/12: Sent out package
2/06/13: APPROVED!

Floridaboy, sorry but you are wrong. Coming with intent and adjusting is illegal. It doesn't matter that people have done it and gotten green cards. It is still illegal. It is also a violation of VJ terms of service to advise or condone illegal activities. I would also suggest you not broadcast the fact that you obtained your green card illegally. You never know who could see it.

as this thread advocates violation of the visa journey terms of service, it is now closed. do not restart this thread.

posts by ceadsearc, Harpa Timsah, and GandK are correct. to do this with immigration intent can lead to a denial on aos and a ban on the individual from the us - which would cause undue hardship for anyone caught attempting this.
