AOS legal? (split topic)

[islandgirl80 28]

USCIS will request the approved I-130 back from the NVC themselves if you pursue the AoS route. You should have no further contact with the NVC if you choose to go down this path, other than telling them you're now filing for adjustment of status if they ask.

have you done this? is this legal to do?

I filed for AoS. You will need to pony up $1,070 for the I-485 fee if you do this, plus a couple of hundred more for the medical.

It's a legal option under most circumstances.

I am asking because I have a friend who is thinking of doing this route instead of waiting on the NVC but I told her to research before she jump into the the AOS path and regret after.
