K-1 Visa AOS

15 years ago By Chief Editor
Question details

My fiance came as k-1 and we got married within the 90 days but didn't file for AOS untile a few days before his I-94 expired? What will happen? will they still accept the application or what will we have to do next?

I think you will be fine. As I recall, the law only requires you to get married within 90 days. But confirm this information and do check with a lawyer as to whether you may travel or not while AOS is pending. This could be the only issue I can think of.

Pending I-485 and marraige

Question details

Currently My I-485 is pending and I-140 is approved last Year (2009) january My PD 05/29/2007. I am working using my EAD and change my job last year I don't have my H1B. I filed my I-485 as single, but I will get married to my Girlfriend (Germany). She come here Last November with waiver visa (stay up 90days),
Now she is thinking to come back using F1 visa a students instead re-entry using waiver visa which she can't change her status anyway). If I get married, can I put her name under my petition (file I-485 for her) ? and apply EAD also with her Travel documents ?

If your priority date is current, you can file her AOS as long as she is legally in the US. I just have an issue with using F-1 visa to accomplish this purpose. Please consult with a lawyer about the details.

AOS and EAD

Question details

I have been in AOS since Sep 2007. I have a EAD and now a new opportunity hit the door to move to another company, same functions but much better pay, arounf a 40% increase. I also got married to a US citizen. My dilema now is should I take the job? my actual employeer may get angry, so could he do something to screw my case? should I re-apply through a spouse? is something the new employer can do so I can be safe? I don't want to bother new employer, but could he eventually at least help so I can keep my actual status until AOS is approved.

It looks like you have several options. Once 180 days of AOS pendency are over after I-140 approval, usually employers cannot hurt you. Speak with a lawyer.

Quickest way to get a GC

Question details

I was a resident physician on the H1B visa.. Prior to completing residency, I got the EAD(my husband , a pharmacist had applied for a Green card through his company). That was in 2006 and we have since made no progress as the EB3 numbers are not current. I did not renew my H1B after the initial 3 years because I could work with the EAD. Would I get a GC faster if I start my own application or should we keep waiting? Can both of us have seperate applications without one affecting the other? Are we better off just waiting?

Generally speaking, where there is a choice, we always file multiple green card applications for spouses.

Heard the good news from Mark this morning about the I-485 approvals for me and my wife. Mark created a SR last week and got the approval on Monday. It was long process but the team at Law offices of Rajiv Khanna are very helpful in the entire process. I used their services for one H1 transfer, 3 H1, H4 renewals and GC processing and would gladly recommend for any Immigration matters.

CASE : GreenCard  My case got stuck at the very last stage and Rajiv offered great help and excellent service and I have to mention, you will not find this kind of prompt service especially when you are tensed and in need of desperate help. My case got resolved with Rajiv's expertise and Heather making multiple calls to USCIS/Customs/other departments. I would like to thank Rajiv and his excellent team of 1. Heather Crump , she is very very very very very helpful, polite, generous, smart and always in track of your case and very very prompt, and also EXCELLENT follow ups. 2. Art Shifflett , he is very very prompt and polite person, he always responds to emails right away and even if you forget he reminds and follow ups, he forwards all questions to appropriate person and makes sure you get the answer you are looking for. 3. Mathew Chacko, he has excellent knowlege and right advice for you, he is very busy yet takes time to reply to your emails and in cases he will call you to discuss what exactly you want and how to go about it, with his expertise you for sure are in safe hands.  Rajiv as you know is the head of heads, and is extremely busy, yet he reviews each and every case and always available. If situation arises he jumps in like the superman / spiderman and pulls you out of trouble.
