Hello everyone, i have a question that i hope someone can help me with. My mother is a permanent resident and she did the i130 petition for me, it has been approved but i am waiting for a visa #.I was able to received the i94 and a ssn and a work authorization because i was under 21 years of age under the v2 visa program.But my i94 expired in 2004 but i am still in the us and i am getting married very soon to a us citizen, does any one have a idea of what paper work i need to fill out and how long i should take. Thank you

You are applying to ADJUST status, NOT applying for a spousal visa. Visas are for ENTRY to the USA, you already are in the USA.

it was i copied and paste the wrong question.

just to make sure i understand my fiance should petition for me by doing the i130 now or after we get married? then i should petition for a i129 or the i864 what do you suggest, keep in mind that my v visa expired in 2004 i read somewhere that if i applied to adjust my status here it would be illegal.I also read that after i had turned 21 with the v2 visa i had to leave the US but i am still in the united states and i am 26.

After you are married, A fiancee cannot file an I-130 for a fiancee. I-130 is based on marriage.

Again marry first, and then follow the guide.

File EVERYTHING together in same envelope to USCIS Chicago.

I-130+ 2 G-325A,, I-485+G-325a+I-864+I-693+I-765 and perhaps I-131.

Note: another thing depending on how long you have been working in the USA (If you have worked and have been credited with 40 quarters of work (Approximately 10 years)) You may be able to use I-864W and waiver the I-864 requirement.
