Hi, everyone, I have a few questions:

I was on F1 visa, my partner proposed on Dec24 and decided to get married on Jan 29.

I did let school know I dropped of classes and I didn't get an answe yet how long it takes for them to cancel my status; another thing, my lawyer filled the forms with "F1 overstay" and I sent the package April 16th.

In the end and most important is that we are expecting a baby,5 months already!

What are the risking I am exposing now with all the decissions made?

You filed for AOS? When approved, your overstay will be forgiven. If denied, you will be illegal and will have to leave. If you had stayed in school, you could have fallen back on your F-1 visa and stayed.

Your lawyer put "F-1 overstay" because your school probably terminated your status (they should do it right away).

I'm kind of sorry you spent $$$ on a lawyer... your situation seems pretty straightforward and you could have filed on your own. I did, and I'm hardly the smartest cookie, got approved with 0 problems.

I filled for AOS last week.

It wasn't an easy case, that's why I used a lawyer but I wish I would have known about tis site sooner so I can save some money!

Well, I don't think my husband will agree with me and the baby leaving.

The authorities don't care what your husband will or will not agree with. The baby can stay, it will be a US citizen by birth, I believe. And anyway, that's the absolute worst case scenario. I really don't think you'll get denied. Sorry to hear your case wasn't easy, but hope you have a good lawyer! You'll be fine :)

You're growing a baby which is the most solid proof of bona fide marriage, you'll be just fine don't break a sweat. Just work on gathering your joint evidences documentation wise before your interview is up. Also don't forget to take ultrasound pics on the day of your interview! My wife had hers with her names on about 3 of the pictures on the day of the interview and it was the first thing I put on the officer's table ontop of my documents during the interview for his eyes to see. Approved on the spot!
