So my husband and I recently filed for adjustment from F-1 to PR. Paperwork that was filed: I-130 packet, and the I-485 packet. We also included the I-765 and the I-131. I'm hoping to get the AP processed by July (fingers crossed). The EAD doesn't concern me as much, thought it will be nice to have the ability to work if I need to. A soon as I figure out how to use the signatures, I'll start keeping our timeline.

I am wondering if anyone has moved in the process of filing? and how this effects the process? My husband has recently been accepted to medical school in Michigan, and we will be needing to move sometime in July. Any information would be helpful, thank you.

It seems that everything has been moving fairly quickly, and for this I'm thankful. Good luck everyone!

Hi All.

Hope everything is going well with everyone.

Been reading the forums in this site and have found it extremely helpful. :)

I filed my AOS packet on May 04, 2009. There were a lot of things that I had to research and go through to figure out how to fill and file the forms. :P Since hiring a lawyer can get pretty pricey. I used an e-book that helped me step by step on what to fill in and what to prepare for the forms. In case anyone is interested, here's the link Nolo Marriage Visa . This site also provides other immigration cases and instructions. I found it extremely helpful, only cost $20 -ish instead of spending $2k for a lawyer. Hope this will help! Great to meet you all and best of luck to everyone!

Cheers,

T.Fu

Congratulations on the Biometrics letter. I got mine earlier this week, scheduled for June 17. I will be out of town then so I tried going early (Saturday, June 6) with my appointment letter, but the USCIS-Dallas North office won't take early walk-ins :( I noticed you have the same field office, are you going to the same ASC? Hope everything works out for you,please post if they take yours? Thanks! :)
