Hi.

I am applying for my green card and I have a question that's bothering me a lot. I graduated from college with a Math major in December 2015 and started my OPT on Feb 8th 2016 (I am a international student). I was working as a Mathematics tutor in the University. I married on may 2016 and then moved states in August. I worked as a tutor until July 9th 2016. I am planning on mailing my full AOS package in a couple of days but i was wondering if I needed a lawyer since I stopped working in July? as far as I know I cannot be unemployed for more than 90 days during OPT and for OCT 10th 2016 it will be around 3 months of being unemployed. Will this affect me in any way? or do I need a lawyer?

Please help me!!

thank you very much,

Your AOS is based on marriage to a USC? If so, don't worry about it. Any minor overstay will be forgiven.

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

Did you marry a USC? Is that why you are filing for AOS? Immediate relatives of a USC do not have to worry about overstay. It does not make you ineligible to file for AOS.
