Legal Question in Immigration Law in New York

Yes, he can file a petition. However, I am afraid that it will not enable you to adjust status in the USA (if you are out of status) unless you are protected under an older U.S. immigration law (for example 245i). Also, in this visa category, waiting time for a visa priority date to become current is over 8 years (for most countries) or even longer, for example, for Philippines. I suggest, you consult a good immigration lawyer and see what legal options you have.
