Hello: Yes, once you turn 21 years old, you will fall under another preference. It should be done right away and done correctly.

No, since you filed the application and was approved before you reached the age of 18. Under the child protection act, you are protected.

You need to provide more information about the basis of submitting your paperwork for permanent residence. Are you filing as children of a US citizen? Some other family-based classification? Employment-based? Please clarify.
