Hey everybody, I'm new!!

So, I was on a J-1 (Not subject to the 2 year rule), met a girl here and decided to stay. We got married in April and I filed for AOS on the 28th of November. I filled out all our paperwork and filed it myself. Received 3 notices (I485, I130 and I765)about a week later. Received my biometrics appt on the 9th of December and showed up at the ASC on the 23rd. All in all, a super easy process thus far and hoping is stays that way! My J-1 had expired in July, but there doesn't seem to have been any issue to date. We're also expecting a little fella in a week or so!

Happy New Year! There's no need to worry. Your case will be treated like a person adjusting status while in the U.S. Be sure that you do not leave the country until you have your green card in hand. After biometrics, most folks receive the EAD (work permit)/AP combo) card in the mail. That's if you applied for both. Soon after you will receive an interview letter to appear with your spouse at a USCIS office. In the mean time, compile evidence of a bonafide marriage. By then, you will have your son's birth certificate that lists you as the father. DNA is great evidence. :)
