Hello people.
A question that I know has been asked before.
My understanding is that we have 90 days to submit the AOS.
Does the 90 days start from when the visa was approved, or from when my fiance entered the United States?
She was appoved on Jine 13th, but got here July 19th.
Thanks and have a good day
David

The 90 day marriage clock starts on entry.. The I-94 has the exact date.... While it is highly recomended that you file AOS within the 90 days, there does not appear to be a hard and fast rule (or at least cause insurmountable problems).

You do not have to file for AOS within 90 days or entry.... you DO have to get married within 90 days of entry.... you can file for AOS at anytime after you have married and have all the papers you need to file...

DavidEvgeniya,

K-1 Visa. The beneficiary has 6 months from date visa is issued to enter the US. Once IN the US, the beneficiary has 90 days to marry the petitioner. Once that has happened, it is best to file AOS as soon as possible because they (the beneficiary) will be considered Out of Status - you'll hear stories of people who have waited a long time to file for AOS, while most do it pretty much immediately (once they have the marriage certificate and/or any other particular documents they need). So, it's not 90-Days to file for AOS, it's 90-Days (from entry date) to get married.

Hi, we filed for AOS february 12th, while my I-94 expired on february 13th.
I did get approved 2 weeks ago.
You don't have tgo file immediately, but it is recommended, since you want the beneficiary to have a legal status as soon as possible, it will help in a lot of situation, but it is not mandatory to do so within those 90 days.
As said you need to get married in that time.

Keep in mind, too, that AOS fees go up at the end of July (I believe July 30?), so if you can file before then, you could save some money.
