I-693 Help

[hart11b 0]

I've spent the last few hours trying to get these answers, but was unable.

My new wife is on a K-1 Visa from Korea. The sealed medical folder wasn't taken when she entered the country on the K-1, so we have it in our possession. So my questions are:

1. What do we do with the medical folder? Send it in with the I-485 packet? Keep it until they ask for the RFE?

2. I also have the DS-3025. At the bottom it says, "Applicant may be eligible for blanket waiver(s) because vaccination(s) not medically appropriate." So what part(s) of the I-693 do we complete (if any)?

3. A little unrelated, but how can we prove that she is in the country legally after the K-1 expires in about a month?

Thanks for any help.

Did she have two sealed envelopes? Normally, but I don't know about her consulate, they put all the K1 application file and the medical results in the same sealed envelope. If her other immigration info is in your possession, then you do need to turn that in. Here's a list of POE numbers. http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/toolbox/contacts/ports/cbp_psml.xml

You can try calling your POE airport first and ask them where it can be turned in. Sometimes it's returning it to the airport. Sometimes it's taking it to an office elsewhere.

Her visa basically expires the day she enters the US. But her I-94 card is what shows her legality (for 90 days only.) After that you're in a limbo, but by filing for AOS and getting the first NOA, you have that to show that she is adjusting status and can remain in the US. Unfortunately it doesn't say that anywhere and it's hard to explain to state police officers who don't know alot about immigration, especially K1s. They are a tiny percentage and don't really get much to prove their legal presence while they await an AOS decision. The NOA1 is nothing more than a receipt and doesn't have it spelled out anywhere for the uninformed state and local police. If you file AOS, the EAD card should arrive sooner than the green card, and that would serve the purpose.

1. Are you sure it's THE medical folder and not a copy? Does it have the "do not open. For USCIS eyes only" on it? If it is, do what Nich-Nick said... otherwise I have no idea...

2. As a K1 applicant, your fiancee will need to have Part 1 completed, Part 2 (vaccination sheet only) and Part 5. It's all there in the instructions, specifically page 4.

3. First, the date on her I-94 is what matters. I can see she entered on the 8th March so her I-94 expires on June 6th. After that expires she is "out of status". You should file AOS asap in order to keep her from going out of status, but, you don't technically have to file before then, it's just a little bit "safer". The NOA1 will serve as proof of filing AOS and her "pending LPR" status. Still, she should stay away from borders and stay off public transport.
