why have you waited?!?!?

You should contatct USCSIS and ask them. Perhaps there is an extension.....but you should start there.

I don't know the laws with the K3 visa. I came here on a K1 visa and have been out of status since October 2007. My husband's income just didn't meet the poverty limit, but now he does and I'm getting ready to submit my AOS this month. From what I've read in other forums, it's ok for K1 to stay in the US even if out of status as long as she married her petitioner within the 90-day period.

I don't think they will deport you if you entered here legally and are married to the person you entered on the K3 for. I think deportation is for worse things than not being able to afford to file. At least I hope so. Hopefully pushbrk or mermaid will come along and tell your for sure.

"I don't think" and "I don't know" don't help. K3 visas are for people who marry before petitioning, not after US entry.

The K3 can be extended, so you could file an extension or file to adjust status. Take your pick.

Just a question: I am on a k-1 visa and won't be able to file AOS due to financial constraints too. But i have married my fiance and k-1 visa will expire this month. Should I report the marriage to immigration and ask for extension of filing application for AOS? What number shoud I call?

You'll technically be "out of status" after your I-94 has expired, but when you file, you'll be "forgiven" this when you eventually file AOS. I would try to get the money to apply for your own state of mind. You won't be able to work without your EAD, and delaying will make your financial situation worse.

Hello VJ members,

Thank you so much for your advices. I am so worried of my situation lately. Your inputs makes me stronger. I am planning to apply EAD so I could help my husband to come out the amount. I am thinking to borrow $340.00 to a friend for the EAD application. I just hope she had that amount too.

Thank you all so much and God Bless.

Hi Rubchett,

I'm so sorry in regards to your situation. I entered here in USA a K-3 visa and I don't know what is the laws in K-1 visa. I hope somebody could give you advices on the same category. God Bless.

Hello again VJ's,

I have another question. If we can come out the money for AOS, we have to proceed the process but I am so worried that we don't have a joint acount as one of the evidences as a bonafide marriage. My husband doesn't believe on that, we don't have anything that can prove our marriage aside of our marriage certificate and photos. Does anybody can advice me?I have a checking account but he's only a custudian just in case I will die he can get the money whatever I'll deposited in it. But that checking account is not moving since I don't have work yet to have an income. Does the USCIS really needs more to prove our marriage? Please help...

I believe since your K-3 status has expired that any EAD application will be rejected. AFAIK, you will now need the I-485 application to be filed in order to receive interim EAD.

The application does not require any bonafides to be submitted. if you are interviewed (50/50 chance) then that is when bonafides are presented... You have time to get evidence together.

Hello again, I think my situation is really complicated since my AOS is still hanging. We're married for more than 2 years and I am a K-3 visa. I wish we could adjust my status as soon as possible. My question is: When I could apply the removal of condition? Or can I apply for that together with my AOS? Please I need your help....every advices is really appreciated....God Bless

you cannot remove conditions unlessl you have been issued conditional permanent residency...

in your situation when you file AOS, since you will have been married 2+ years, then upon approval you will avoid conditional residency and be issued a 10 yr card.
