The filing of the I-485 Adjustment of Status application requires physical presence in the U.S. on the day the application is received at the USCIS. He must also complete Biometrics (fingerprinting and photographs) at the nearest Application Support Center in the U.S., which is typically scheduled 2-4 weeks after filing. Biometrics must be completed in the U.S., as well.
