My wife entered the US on an F-1 Visa, and we married this past May. Things are going pretty well, she's already got her EAD and we have our initial interview scheduled for 9/13 (though we may have to reschedule due to moving). We're wondering, though, if she'll be able to apply for grad school by November/December. Do we have to wait until the AOS process s complete before she can do that?

You need to check with the school as to what they require.

Schools in our state don't let you go unless you have the green card. EAD means nothing to the school.

Your I-129f was approved in 5 days from your NOA1 date.

Your interview took 67 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

AOS was approved in 2 months and 8 days without interview.

ROC was approved in 3 months and 2 days without interview.

My school accepted me but would not let me enroll without a GC. It depends on the school. You should talk to the international students office. Luckily I got my GC with plenty of time to spare and I start grad school in a week!

My Journey:

We met through a study-abroad program in Shanghai, China in August of 2009

We got engaged March of 2010

I received my K1 VISA in 6 months (June-December 2010)

We were married 04/02/2011
I received my conditional 2-year greencard (AOS) in 2.5 months with no interview (April-June 2011)

Our son was born 02/03/2013

I received my masters degree in Speech-Language Pathology 04/17/2013

I received my 10-year greencard (ROC) in 3 months with no interview (March-June 2013)

My husband returned from deployment 06/20/2013

My naturalization journey took 4 months (April-August 2014)

I became a US citizen on 08/01/2014

Received passport in 3 weeks (regular processing)
