So, I’d like to understand if there is a 60 day or 90 day waiting period before a B-2 visitor can AOS?

From what I read there is no "rule", USCIS will review the evidence and the date when applied, if they suspect fraud or intent to become a permanent resident when the B2 visitor entered the USA they may deny the application. Some people just wait some time before sending the page to make sure they don't suspect that the original plan was to stay in the USA after entering with a visitor visa.
Each case is different, is not the same having B2 visa for a long time and visited the USA each year than having B2 for the first time and this is the first time visiting the USA. I'm no expert, just from what I read. Good luck.Nov 2018 - Package sent - EB - Texas Service Center
Day 1 - Package received at the lockbox
Day 999 - Card delivered to me - Aug 2021

A lawyer once told me the 60/90 day rule is used as a guide and just like Enub said each case is determined on its own merit. The lawyer, however, strongly recommended complying with the 90 day rule.
On the flip side, I’ve seen people who didn’t wait for the entire 90 days but still managed to get their AOS approved.
I have also heard about instances where people who didn’t wait for the 90days had their AOS application denied.Mar/25 => Application sent to Chicago lockbox
