Update: I just got text notifications last night for all three forms. When I check my case status online for the I-485 it says fingerprint fee was accepted on 3/3 and they're working on the case. And for I-765 and I-131 it says they received the forms on 2/26. I'm confused since it was delivered to them on 2/27 . I'm curious what the official NOA date will be on the paper notices

Hi!

Do you know if Supplement A of the I-485 is required for adjustment of status for K-1's?

 

When I go on the USCIS page( https://www.uscis.gov/greencard/adjustment-of-status) about adjustment of status for K-1 it says,

"

Eligibility for Adjustment of Status

You may be eligible for a Green Card based on your admission as a K-1 nonimmigrant if you meet the following requirements:

• You properly file Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status; "

 

but when I click on that link, it takes me to the supplement A form and not the I-485 form... So I am wondering is the USCIS page has an error or if we are supposed to file out this form in addition to the I-485?

 

Please let me know if anyone is experiencing this or what forms they filled out!

I believe it's an error as they even call it "Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status" and not the Supplement A for I-485. I think they just linked it to wrong page by mistake. We didn't file the suplement, nor have I seen anyone else (K1) to do it. We used this: https://www.uscis.gov/i-485

Thank you!!

So, I went to click on the link again from the site and it now correctly lists the I-485 instead of the supplement form. Not sure, if a lot of other people were complaining/commenting on this issue or not but it is all fixed now!

Not sure how it works exactly but the expiration date on the visa should not matter anymore. It basically says until when he was able to enter the US. When he entered he got a stamp in his passport for 90 days. Within those 90 days you needed to get married, which you did. I think I saw on other forums that if you get married within 90 days, it doesn't matter when you file for AOS but it should be rather sooner than later since after the 90 days from entering US the married K1 is out of status. Try to look for topics under "filing AOS expired I94" in the search on here. E.g. this thread comes up:
