Hello,

I'm helping out a friend (USC) but wants to marry his girlfriend from Thailand. His girlfriend entered the United States 6 years ago, under an F1 visa. However, the F1 visa expired last year, no OPT either. She is still in the USA, out-of-status.

What is the recommended course of action? Will filing for AOS be problematic because of her expired F1 visa?

Thanks much,

Ed
