CR-1 OR AOS FROM F1?

[sarah86 8]

hey everyone,

My brother in law is a USC and sister in law is F1. They've been married for about 6 months now and

they want to start adjusting her to Resident status.

Im a bit confused as to what they have to do. I filled the I130 and i was going to submit just that with proof of relationship but i wanted

to check this site before submitting it and long be hold i was wrong. My husband and I went the k1 route so I am familiar with AOS but i didnt know it was the same process that needed to be done for F1 adjustment as well. Is there anything different the K1 process during the F1 adjustment?

The below is the complete set I submitted for my husband after we got married on his K1 entrance plus the proof of relationship of course. I believe the only addition to this is the I130 for the alien relative, right?

Thanks all <3

if she is in the us then i485 and i130 will work. if she is not in the us then the cr1 route is what she will do.

it is important that if she is in the us not to leave before she gets advanced parole. since her F1 visa is not usable for entry if she intends to adjust her status.

good luck

She is in the US.

She won't be going anywhere until she is granted Ap.

Thank you so much for your help.
