My parents applied for my I 130 in Feb of 2003. We did not hear anything and meanwhile I got accepted to go to school and moved to the US to attend school from Jan2004-May2007 after I completed my studies I applied for an OPT which just expired in May 2008.My degree is not in the STEM catagory so I cannot apply for an extension based on that.Meanwhile my I 130 has been approved and when I called I was told that they are processing applications from April 2002!which means that I will probably have to wait another year or longer.I am originally from Canada and looked at the T1 visa but those are only for temporary stays.My entire family lives here and are all permanent residents. I would like to stay with them and utilize my degree that I earned here.I want to know what my options are. Is there any type of temporary work permit that I can apply for while I wait for approval?I was also thinking of applying for my I 485 and I 765 but I don't know if I have to wait until a number is issued to me or can i do it now?I would appreciate any guidance. Thanks!
