 I am a Canadian citizen and my wife is an American citizen. We filed the I-130 paperwork and were approved. The case was sent to the NVC in April.  We are currently filling out all the paperwork that we were going to send to the NBC but things have changed.   My wife previously would travel back to Canada with me so we could spend a lot of time together. We came down to her house at the beginning of August where we decided due to a change in circumstances (that will not be discussed here) that I will be staying and adjusting status from here.  I crossed as a visitor as I always do (we cross every weekend) at the Lewiston border August 2nd. 
 

We know we need to fill out the form 1-485, both my wife (no income) and my father-in-law need to fill out the I-864 forms. He is my sponsor and his income is more than adequate. We will also file I-765 and I-131. 

 

I have a couple questions:
 

1) Is that everything we need to start this new journey?

 

2)  From what I understand I don’t need to submit any new evidence with the I-485 because the I-130 is already approved is that correct? 

 

3) How long (approximately) for EAD cars to arrive.

 

4) I drove down. My car is Canadian. I own it. How/when can I import it??


 

I think that’s all for now. 
Thank you 

Mike

1) You wife also has to file an I-864

2) attach a copy of NOA2 from the I-130, include everything in the instructions.

3) somewhere between 4 to 9 months.  You will not be able to leave the US until you get the AP or green card.

4) You have to import it at the border.  Not sure how to do that from Arkansas but you can contact customs.
