Adjustment of status from B1B2

[VJ28 3]

Hello all,

Thank you for this space to share info first off. 
I have a few questions so I’ll post my situation.

 

Came to the US as a B1B2 (Tourist Visa). Intention at POE was to travel a bit, spend time with long term partner and then head back eventually. Long term partner then proposed to me and we decided to just tie the knot and make it official soon after (under 90 days) I arrived to the US. Personal Situation changed, both are thinking it’s better to not be separated at this point so is it fine to just create an Adjustment of Status package at this point? I-94 is still valid so no one has overstayed.

 

- Is it fine to just go ahead and file for Adjustment? (Partner is US Cit)

- I read there is a 90 day rule?

- Will there be any scrutiny on the case?

Go for it, there is no 90 day rule.

Blame it on the moon ( cause when the moon hits your eye…)  …and USC who declared he could not live without you! You will be fine and you clearly addressed the answer u will be asked at the interview “ Why did you come / what was purpose of your visit..”

At the interview phase, would check check phones as evidence?

A better question, is that counted as evidence?

Never heard of them checking phones?

Well ok. I’ll print it all

You’re ok to proceed with AOS. How long after your arrived did you get married?

also bear in mind that you won’t be able to travel or work for 8-9 months. If you’re fine with that go ahead

Unless you misrepresented yourself when you entered the US, there will be no issues with having entered on a B2.  The IO's asking about intent virtually NEVER even arises......ever.

As in to check if your relationship is genuine? If unannounced USCIS home visits are not unheard of then of course they can ask you to turn your phone over. 
 

If you mean to show pictures through your phone instead of printing them, then no, they will not accept electronic evidence. You will have to choose a few nice photos, print them out and bring them to the interview along other evidence of a bonafide marriage.
