So every second week of the month, the Dept of State post its monthly visa bulletin for all categories. For the month of Aug, the VB for F2a category is "Current" for all countries. Being "Current" for F2a preference rarely happened. This means a lot to family members of LPR who are legally here in the United States. Because of this, they can file to adjust status while they are here legally in the US. They can file Form I-130, Form I-485 concurrently without waiting for their PD to become current.
From Dept of State website:
F2A: This category has become “Current” for August, and is expected to remain so for the next several months. This action has been taken in an effort to generate an increased level of demand. Despite the fact that there are large amounts of registered F2A demand, currently there are not enough applicants who are actively pursuing final action on their case to fully utilize all of the available numbers.
