Form I-485, App to register for permanent res or adjust status

[Brenda2010 1]

Sorry, as I write this i realise how dumb it sounds! So here's the deal: was issued my k1 visa on Aug. 30 2010, it expires Feb. 24, 2011. I activated the visa/entered the US on Dec. 27th 2010, got my i-94 which expires end of March...90 days after entry if not married, which we did so we're good.

Question is: on form i-485 it asks for my current status...would that be K1 visa or i-94 holder? Also, asks for an expiry date...worried about putting Feb. 24 2011 as today's Feb. 15 and they won't even get it by then.

Appreciate your thoughts, thanks

Personally, I put "K-1 Visa Holder" and then for the expiration date, the day the I-94 expires. The expiration date of your K-1 is irrelevant now, since you used it and were issued an I-94.

And that didn't sound dumb!

It's a smart move to ask, always.

K-1.

Have you checked out the example forms? they are pretty good at helping to fill stuff out.

Thanks guys - there's always something about these damn forms that puzzles me/stresses me out!

Inky - yup, checked out the sample form and they did have K1 and an expiry date but didn't know how that synced up with their timeline (ie. already expired or not). I usually do find the samples most helpful, more so certainly than the instructions uscis provides!

Hugglebuggles - will do the same as you did, makes sense

Just Bob - agreed, better safe than sorry

Have a good day all, B

Just checking that you did! I found a lot of my questions answered on the examples, also see a lot of people don't seem to look at the examples for some reason and they are really helpful.
