I would also not think of AOS as 'nonsense'. It is what will allow your wife to make the transition to a permanent resident in this country....as of now she is here either under the K1 visa(if she's still within the 90 day validity of the I-94) or she is out of status.

As ELW stated, you have some work to do...gathering of paperwork and filling out a few petitions. Read the guides and familiarize yourself with the process. Any specific questions you may have can always be asked and, for the most part, answered by those here on VJ. :)

Good luck,

-P

... and if you survived the K1/K3 journey, the AOS won't be so bad. IMHO, doing the AOS (putting the packet together) was easier as long as you got all the pertinent documents.

Follow the GUIDE and you won't get lost.

--Mae

P.S. Like what Paul&Minya said, AOS is not nonsense because it's your wife's freedom to live the life here in the US normally, drive, work and travel whenever she wants to.

Good luck!

not sure what you meant by AOS nonsense, but start out by doing what the others have suggested by reading the guide here in VJ. also read the instructions for the I-485 http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-485instr.pdf If you have any specific questions, ask and someone will probably try to answer. :thumbs:

If she is using your name (married name), all her paperwork should be filed under that name.

I would also suggest you reading the guides.

Well I think as nonsence, he meant that he also got fed up with all the paperwork.

Well it has to be done so that you still have a legal status.
