Do i need to fill out the I-130 for my K-1 aos ??

[MIke n Heather 8]

Hello Vj:ers

Im confused... im in the U.S on a K-1 visa and im soon getting married my question is if my then wife will need to fill out the I-130 or not..? or is it just the CR-1 / IR-1 / K-3 visa holders who need that? or do i just need to fill out the I-485 and I-765

in my "pink" letter that i got when my VISA was recieved in the mail it says that we have to but i dont really hear about other K-1:ers doin it ..? and the timeline here says nothing about it either..?

Grateful for answers..

Mike

K1s don't file I-130, just I-485, I-131 (Advance Parole, to re-enter the US if you need to travel abroad while your AOS is pending) and I-765 for EAD. I-131 and I-765 are optional but you should file both, it's free with your I-485 and AOS seems to be taking really long these days.

No, you do not file an I-130. See the guide here on VJ: http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1k3aos
