What does "current USCIS status" mean on Form I-485?

Anonymous Jan 4, 2011 2 views 2 answers

I'm trying to complete Form I-485 for my parents' adjustment of status. I'm not sure what "current USCIS status" mean. Is it 'B-2' since they came in as visitors/tourist? The form also asks for expiry of the status in question. Does it mean expiry of their current stay as stated in their I-94 or expiry of their US visa? Thanks!

B-2 is correct. The expiration date of their status is the date that the I-94 expires. For more information, please see
