Hi my friend came here on a student visa and is now planning on marrying a green card holder and staying here. I was wondering what the process to change her visa would be? Are there any limitations? I am not familiar with student visas and wanted to find out what the process would be like for them.

Thank you,

we sent our petition on april 16, 2013,,, and we got our noa1 on april 24 ,,,,,,,On April 24, 2013, your Alien Registration Number was changed relating to your I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please check our website at www.uscis.gov for further updates on your case.

      ....... so what does this mean, how long do I have to wait to get the noa2????? I am so worried, all I think about is noa2 , hellllllllppppp!!!!    

Hey guys! We sent in our AOS paperwork in the beginning of January, have our NOA1 date January 7, and haven't heard back so far. Moreover, my status on USCIS website is still "Acceptance". Do you think this is okay, or something needs to be done here?

Thanks,

Hello

I moved to the US less than a week ago on IR1 visa to join my USC wife and USC newborn child. Since my wife is on a maternity leave and I am not employed currently, we are seriously considering applying for Family Halth Plus, which is a public health insurance program here in New York State based on household income.

As I understand my USC wife and child are eligibile to receive the insurance benefit. However, it is not clear to me whether this is considered as mean's tested public benefit and if I (LPR) am eligible to receive it. Please share any experience or advice that you may have regarding the topic.

Thank you in advance

Hello,

just to make sure, the beneficiery is the one not eligible to receive any federal or state means-tested public benefit, correct? My understanding is that the petitioner can receive these benefits if qualified.

thanks
