We got married last year in September .

Her visa status is expired since november 2007 . She has all her documents still with her .

We live together , have a joint bank account together , the house we are renting is in both our names, we both have credit cards and lots of other documents with both of us .

Anyway , I need help with her AOS and help with getting her travel documents and work permits .

We are filing the following forms together :

i-130

i-131

i-485

i-693

i-765

i-864(for myself)

i-864(my joint sponsor)

G-325A

8 forms including the extra i-864 for my joint sponsorship

Should we also file for i-864A~????

Okay. I am going to move your thread to the AOS From Another Visa forum. Lots of people there with experience on this. And, yes, it's possible. :) But don't let her leave the US until she gets her GC. With an overstay like that she won't be allowed back into the country... even with Advance Parole.

Welcome to VJ, BruceLeejr. And good luck. :)

Don't even waste your time on the AP, you won't be using it anyway. ;)

We were VWP adjusters, with overstay, our whole process from filing to GC took about 3 months. We had no RFEs or other kind of hold-ups. my thoughts to you is to make sure you have EVERYTHING in order from the beginning. Good luck!

What Trillium is saying is don't bother filing for the I-131 Advance Parole application because your wife won't be able to use it.

I cannot answer the rest of your questions without reading the I-485, carefully, because it has changed too much since I filed. My best suggestion is to print out the USCIS I-485 instructions and read it line by line, highlighting the action items so that you don't miss anything, and do the same for any other document they are requesting. That's what I, and probably most of us, did.

Just saw this thread in the US Embassy and Consulate Discussion, and thought it may be of some help to you:

I-846 or I-846A

There's a Forums Search button you can use if you'd like to find any others. (It's in the user panel where you see "Logged in as: ... ".

This is what we included - this is right from my cover letter..

- Payment in the amount of $1,010 ($930 I-485 Filing Fee + $80 Biometric Fee)

- I-485

- Copy of passport page with nonimmigrant visa

- 4 Passport photos

- Birth certificate (Original & Official English Translation)

- Vaccination Supplement completed by an USCIS Authorized Civil Surgeon

- G-325As

- Affidavit of Support (includes I-864, letter from employer, 2008 Tax Return with supporting W-2’s/1099s, and 2007 & 2006 tax returns)

- Evidence of Eligibility – A copy of fiancé petition approval notice, marriage certificate, and copy of Form I-94

- I-765 Application for Employment Authorization

My husband came over on a fiance visa so we didn't send any add'l evidence as we provided that all originally. But if I were you I would send pics, copies of bank account info etc.

Also for the medical stuff - she will have to have a full medical exam by the civil surgeon.

Good Luck,

I filed in January 2009 and my interview is in July, 2009. On an average it takes about 6-9 months for the AOS. I am filing from B-1/B-2 as well. Best of luck. Don't bother applying for Advance parole. With an overstay, your wife will have a tough time at the port of entry if he leaves.

I believe you have to provide medical report from a civil surgeon. So, read the form carefully and try and locate a local civil surgeon. A friend of my wife is adjusting from tourist visa and she had to supply medical and vaccination report. Good Luck
