:please: "I-130 was filed in June 2001 and approved May 2005 by green car holder parents. My unmarried over 21 years old friend was admitted in to US legally holding student F-1 Visa in 01/2000. She stopped maintaining I-20 since 2002 even thought she was taking classes. She got diploma of AA in May 2004. She has been taking classes every semester before and after graduation until I-485 was filed last year Sept 2007 but not full time. She did not file any extension of stay beyong her graduation with INS. I-485 was submitted in Sept 2007 as petition priority was up already but denied this month and she has 30 days to leave the country. Both parents got citizenship in May 2006.
:cry:
Question: should she leave the country and file I-824 ? Will she face 3 to 10 years bar penalty if she is considered out of status ? Will consular approves her with denied I-485? What should she do now and how can you help?" :bang:
