Hello guys! Hope everyone  is doing well and happy after being reunited  with  loved ones. 

We got married on April 27th,  now we want to start with AoS process but we don't  know where to start. Please  could  anyone  share with us how to go through AoS? We only have our marriage  license just a paper with our details  and signed by a court house personnel. Is that only we need as a marriage  license? 

Thanks, wish everyone happy  marriage.

You are more then welcome to send me a message with any questions and I will help as much as I can.

 

Take Care,

Kaitlin

Is everyone here filling after K1 visa? I was a student (F1 Visa) in US (with an EAD card because of OPT) and got married and filled for i-485, i-130 and EAD, and I was wondering if it's the same timeline for people in the same situation as I am?

Hi guys. I saw a lot of people trying to expedite the EAD. Don't want to be inappropriate but how did you get the job offers? I mean did you applied for a job and just told them that they need to give you a paper so the documents can be done sooner? I'm kind of scared to tell this sort of things. I don't know, it's probably stupid of me. But how did you manage to persuade the employer? Thanks in advance!

I applied for multiple jobs I knew I was qualified for. It was during the interview process that I tell them about my status. One employer told me to come back when I get the EAD and another said they had no issues with waiting. They wrote me an offer letter and said i could start whenever my EAD comes.  

 

Just be honest and confident in yourself. Know what you bring to the employer's company.

This gives me so much hope. What did you use to expedite EAD? Job offer?

I've been wondering the same. I'm also applying from an F1 but it seems that most of the people here are K1s. Hence, their experiences are probably not relevant for us.
