Hi friends,
I hope your cases are going well. Im in a need of desperate advice from you guys. So, my mom has filed i-130 for my married sister, and recently we have received a letter requesting evidence about her birth certificate. And before the letter ends, it also says:
" INDICATE WHETHER BENEFICIARY WILL PROCESS OVERSEAS OR ADJUST STATUS IN THE U.S.
Your petition indicates that the beneficiary will both apply for the visa at an overseas consulate or embassy and adjust status in the United States. If your petition is approved and you have not indicated an option, USCIS will retain the case. If the beneficiary applies for the visa overseas, they may be required to file form I-824, Application for Action on an Approved Application or Petition, with fee, to have the petition mailed overseas."
Basically, a person who filed i-130 for my mom, chose two options like to apply overseas and adjust status in the US. Thus, USCIS is unsure which one of them we want and asking us to indicate. How should I indicate? Should I file i-824 while my i-130 is still pending? I don't see any other ways of indication. Please, help me with it if you have been in such situation or know the solution. I greatly appreciate your efforts!
Best,
Lily
