US Immigration from Egypt

hello,
I will enter US on a k1 fiance visa, and I am planning to get married and start AOS package but I am not planning to leave US until I get GC so I am trying to save some bucks as I-131 is separated now and costs $630
from my research, I know I can't leave US while AOS is pending
does anybody know if it's ok to file AOS + EAD package without AP?

My wife did all her paper work for her NVC interview and finished in January and we still have not heard a word really what happing in the Cairo embassy. I have no I deal who to contact or what to due it been 7 month and nothing

I applied for CRBA for my new born babe in Egypt but i dont see no appointment available at all in 2024 or 2025

what should i do

Fiance Visa K1 - Online Engagement Ceremony is Acceptable.

We are officially engaged but I was in America and my fiancee was in her country we did the engagement party online because the paperwork takes time and I had to go back to America.

Is that ok? or acceptable since we have already met? Thanks.

Hello,

I was waiting for my interview at the embassy in Cairo for CR1 marriage visa and green card (Have approved I130 and DQ since June 2023), however my company transferred me inside the US with L1A visa.

They have filed for me the AOS and asked for the I130 approval notice and I received the receipt notice for I-485 yesterday with biometrics scheduled next week.

Questions:

1- Will have an already approved I130 notice make the process much easier? I have a priority date in the notice of March 15 2022 when we started our immigration journey, would that make it faster than the normal processing times I'm seeing of 12-18 months?

2- If the answer for number one is no, If I get a lawyer or attorney to support with that would it make a difference?

3- We had a baby 3 months ago when I entered the U.S! would that be a strong evidence where I can send the birth certificate and email them to move my case faster?

4- What is the normal timeline and events? I know it's receipt notice then biometrics then an interview, is there anything I'm missing?

5- I received the receipt notice with national benefits center in the bottom, is that my service center? Because I can't see any processing time for this service center.

Thank you and sorry for the long post!!
