Wait, the question is if you were over 21 on the application receipt date, can you adjust via 245i using a new qualifying I-130?

Wait, so if my father has a 245(I) and I was under 21 years old at the time he filed. I am grandfathered in and can adjust via marriage?

Yes and in USA without leaving.

I had a Labor Certification ETA-750 filed with DOL before 4/30/01. I never got the job because of later withdrawal. I then had my USC Mother file I-130 for me 2011 and was approved in 2014.

I qualified for AOS and EAD in October 2017.

I got my EAD approved 2 months ago. So now I am just waiting for my interview letter.

Good to know that she will now be eligible to adjust.
She would need to be under 21 (so 20 years and 364 days or younger) as of the date the petition was filed to qualify.

CSPA applies if they turn 21 while AOS pending.

Nope, I'm not married. I thought I couldn't adjust because I didn't have a point of entry. Guess I should just get married then.

EWI's are covered by 245i grandfathered law. Do you have DACA?

Did you get AP? If yes, you could return to USA with POE.
