Yes she can do both. I'd file the I-130 now and then wait closer to the B2 visa expiration to renew it, preferably with the dropbox. Make sure she doesn't overstay otherwise she will lose the B2. Renewing the B2 during or after the NVC is where the issue of immigrant intent arises. But by then you are done with what is typically the longest part.
If her I-130 is approved while she is here she can do an I-485 AOS. If she is in Peru she does an interview. Interview is easier than AOS in my opinion.
She should definitely have travelers insurance that cover COVID. You need to research the costs and options for insurance as an immigrant because it isn't going to be cheap.
What do you mean with overstay? I usually have her visit us for 6 months, for which I understand is the time limit for a visitor visa, and the ticket I got for this year it’s the same for 6 months too. She has never had any issue. Is that overstay? Or overstay it’s passing the 6months?
how long does it usually take the process of requesting a family member? I’m guessing due to the pandemic the timeline has increased. Do you know an estimate? Thank you again for your your answers!

No reason not to apply now.
She can apply to renew that. US consulates in Peru do have a dropbox for renewals.
You will need to address the insurance issue at some point in the I-130 process. Consulates have been turning down immigrants more due to "public" charge concerns. And look at the DS-5540 form that now gets submitted at the NVC stage. Being 72 isn't going to make this any easier.
Sorry I have to re-ask again, but just to make sure I’m not confusing myself. So, can I do both process (renewal and resident petition) at the same time and one won’t affect the other to be denied and/or affect her travel?
her visa will expire by July If next year, so I don’t really need to renew it, but I want to, just in case the process gets longer than expected and I still want her to visit, also there is the chance to renew without the interview and it’s easier before the visa is expired.
also what happens while in the process of requesting her residency, she needs to go back to Peru for the interview but she is still here? Could I reprogram de interview dates?Also, do I need to have the insurance for her now or I have to get it once it’s been asked in the process? We didn’t know about the insurance but we already have contemplated because she definitely will have to get one since she will be living with us.
thanks for your replies.

Please update your profile then.
You can file at anytime. She is not allowed to enter to stay for longer than allowed on her tourist visa which is determined at the POE. She would interview in Peru. She can continue to visit during the process.
I have a ticket for her for the end of the year, could I apply for her since now and that won’t affect her trip or have her visa denied? Or should I wait until she returns to my country to request her. Also her visa will expire next year, I was planning to obtain a new visa for her, could I do that? Or not... this is so confusing.
*This is my first time coming back to visa journey page after 10 years, I didn’t know that I had to update anything in my profile. Some people ask questions as it would be a police interrogation and deduct the worst from people, I don’t remember people was like this before. 🙄

And back to the op question..
if they are currently in the country, yes they can apply to adjust.
if they haven’t yet arrived and plan to adjust after arrival, then the answer is no.
I don’t understand it seem like the same answer but explained differently...
of they haven’t arrived, but plan to arrive, stay for a while like the 90 days they say and after that try to adjust their status, how can’t not they do it?

Due to all this craziness of the pandemic I want to bring my mom to the US to take care for her. But I want to ask for her residence while she is visiting me. Could I do that? Is it legal? Could that happen that her residence be denied and her visa will be revoked? She is 72 and I don’t want her to be constantly traveling Inter countries. I want to be able to take care for her.
please help!

Hello, I’m asking for a friends.
her mom is US citizen, and she requested her on 2012, the process has been very long for both of them.
On february of the current year my friend recieved a message with her case number, asking her to follow SIX STEPS that has to take before the NVC schedule her visa interview. But she HASN’T recieve any paper, email or call telling her what are those steps. Does she need to wait, or does she need to contact them?
what are those steps?
she is an adult and married daughter of an US citizen. Her brother has recently received his visa as a single adult.
And another question:
How much time aproximately takes to get an F3 visa? Thanks!!
Could I do a petition of residence for my mom while she is visiting the US?

so if she writes the correct time in the I-94 that the plane ticket says that it’s 6 months, and she return in that date, that won’t create any issue? Because we have been doing that in all her trips. Well some trips were “shorter” of 3 or 4 months.
thank you so much for your time and info! You have been of great help! So I’ll start looking at all the documents we need and start applying for her before she comes to the US
