We are not aware of an i94... visa was processed at by uscis at preclearance in ireland. I dont think they issue one...

You get an I-94 AFTER you POE
It's electronic.

Simply google I-94, it will take you to the website
Enter Beneficiary's passport information and print it

The I-94 was created after the beneficiary flew into the US and came threw POE. Since the K1 visa is a one-time entry visa, the I-94 takes the place of it which shows the beneficiary's current status. If the beneficiary flew to the US using the K1, he had to go through POE at customs...

 

The I-94 is printed off the website: https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/

 

I would advise the beneficiary keep a copy of the I-94 and a copy of the marriage license in their wallet until they receive the NOA1 after you file the AOS. Having this one hand is proof that the beneficiary is allowed to be in the US legally since the K1 visa is no longer of valid use after entry. Once you receive the NOA1 from filing the AOS, have the beneficiary keep a copy of the NOA1 in the wallet as this will be proof that they are allowed to be in the US legally while waiting for their GC.

Awww...no problem!!!! Just remember to make sure you cross-check everything, signed all documents and that you have whatever else is needed for your case.

Hi All,

 

It appears to be 2 August AOS Filer threads happening at the same time, so I'm trying to see about getting them merged together so we can all be on this AOS journey together and if there are questions, we can all find the answer in the same thread.

 

I plan on mailing my husband's AOS via FedEx either tomorrow or Friday (he just has to take his passport photos today). But our entire AOS/EAD/AP package is all set and ready to go!!!! Just gonna review it at least 5 more times today to make sure nothing is overlooked!!!!

 

So for now, I'm just saying Hi...and good luck to everyone!

hi sir if we're sending everything together along with the l 485 do we still need to send the proof or required documentation for each separately?

If you scroll up, you will see the checklist I provided for each form. But to answer your question....yes, you have to send proof of what is required for each form. You can put the whole packet together but each form has it's own proof/evidence requirements.

are you filing for your daughter or for your spouse?

 

if filing for your daughter, my checklist may not have all that you are looking for and therefore, some of the proof might be slightly different. Either way, make sure to read the instructions for each form and what is required for proof. the instructions can be found on the uscis.gov site for each form.

Ohhhhhh....I understand now..lol.

 

The form is the same but certain proof of evidence might be a little different than what you see on my checklist. Either way, make sure to read the instructions for each form and what is required for proof. the instructions can be found on the uscis.gov site for each form.

THX SO MUCH. its a peace of mind to discuss with people here on this forum

[JMK_IT 134]

Have you guys included any proof of bona fide relationship in your packets? I understand it's not a requirement, but I figured it wouldn't hurt. I enclosed two photos from our marriage and a copy of our most recent utility bill (addressed to both).
