A Reddit user recently shared their successful adjustment of status (AOS) experience after overstaying a B2 visa for 17 years. The process, initiated by their U.S. citizen daughter, took just five months from filing to approval.
Key Details:
- Filed I-130, I-485, and I-765 concurrently on October 17, 2025.
- Biometrics appointment completed on November 4, 2025.
- I-765 was expedited and approved on January 16, 2026.
- Final interview occurred on March 12, 2026, with I-130 and I-485 approved shortly after.
The user emphasized the importance of being honest during the interview, noting that the officer primarily focused on confirming their relationship with their daughter rather than their immigration violations. This positive outcome serves as a hopeful reminder for others facing similar situations, especially those with long overstays.
