Okay, here are some more questions that I'm having. First of all, I brought my wife(then fiancee) here on a k-1 visa. We just recently got married. Now were looking at filing. She has just around a month left before her 90 days, and so we want to file the papers this week if at all possible.

I've been reading about an I-130 petition for alien relative form. Is this needed for the I-485 when using a k-1 visa? Or is that for k-3, ect? Also, I am preparing my Affidavit of Support, and saw that there are processing fees for the affidavit of support(if filed stateside). Is that included in the $1010.00 processing fee for the I-485 or am I paying the 70 dollars on top of that(for the affidavit of support).

Another question in regards to that affidavit of support is, if I show adequate income(125 % of poverty line) do I have to show assets, bank account, ect.?

Sorry for the amount of questions in one post, & for it being a bit scattered. Thanks in advance,

Isaiah

I've been reading about an I-130 petition for alien relative form. Is this needed for the I-485 when using a k-1 visa?

I-130 is not needed for a K-1 to adjust status. K-1 Adjustment of Status Guide

Or is that for k-3, ect? Also, I am preparing my Affidavit of Support, and saw that there are processing fees for the affidavit of support(if filed stateside). Is that included in the $1010.00 processing fee for the I-485 or am I paying the 70 dollars on top of that(for the affidavit of support).

No fee for the affidavit of support when sent with the I-485

Another question in regards to that affidavit of support is, if I show adequate income(125 % of poverty line) do I have to show assets, bank account, ect.?

No - if your income is sufficient, you do not need to complete the optional areas for bank accounts, assets, etc.

Thanks so much. I see that your showing that you filed for the EAD & the Advanced parole...I thought that there was an extra charge to file these, I forgot how much. But like 200-300 dollars per. If it is going to cost that much on top of the 1010 dollars, then I was planning on either filing them later or not at all. But if that is included in the 1010 dollars, then I might as well file them as well. So, is it 1010 dollars for everything(including EAD & advanced parole?).

Everything else looks great. I feel very comfortable with most of it(since most of it I had to do for the I-129F as well). Thanks again

If filed together at the same time then it is just one fee of 1010. If you file sepeate, then you would have to pay for each one. goodluck!
