US Immigration from Japan

I was hoping to get advice and a second opinion.

My wife and I are starting the process for her AOS process from F-1 visa to green card but...

Her F-1 visa expires in a couple days but she is still maintaining her student status at her school and her i-20 is valid until December.

We asked a lawyer online for advice and he says its fine to submit the i-485 after her F-1 expires. Is this true?

I am a US citizen and I already submitted my i-130 to be her sponsor.

We still want to try to submit her i-485 before her F1 visa expires but wont be able to get the marriage certificate on time. We have the customer copy from getting our marriage license and civil ceremony but no certificate yet.

other than the marriage certificate we have all other documents.

Should we submit the i-485 with basically the receipt of the marriage license before her F1 expires or is it really ok to apply after her visa expires?

Thank you in advance for any help on this.

My green card got stolen as well as my car in Montreal, Canada.

I entered US with my foreign passport and greencard.

I searched onine about the procedure and seems like I have to apply I-131A for travel document.

HOWEVER, the US consulate in Montreal does not take I-131A form.

Do you know what should I do?

Thank you so much for your help in advance.

I am permanent residence and submitted my husband's I-130 last June when visa bulletin status was current.

However, the visa bulletin for April, Final Action dates for family sponsored preference cases of F2A is changed from current to 08Sep20.

What does this mean to us?

We've been waiting for NOA2 but does this change gonna affect to NOA2? or since I submitted I 130 last June when status was current, is it ok?

Hi everyone! I m new here and learning the ropes. When filling out the I-130, I m stuck on figuring out if submitting my current employment as self employed at Uber technologies is acceptable enough if I m making more than the income requirements as stated in the guides forum? Also, do I have to provide proof of my new job in the future during this whole process?

I m recently married March of 2023 to my wonderful wife in Japan. I completed my military career mid last year, looking for a job in software engineering and now just been driving Uber and making it work out. No luck out here yet but I m still looking for a job that beats the income of driving Uber out here in Hawaii. I also have a business on the side that is starting out but not a lot of revenue coming in yet. Driving Uber along with my business and non-taxable income through the VA, I m making 2 to 3 times the minimum income requirement. I don t think there is a problem with income but I m also not sure if this is an acceptable occupation in USCIS s eyes as it s not a stable job .

My father is going to be a joint sponsor on the I-864.

He is semi retired, receives a military pension, and will be filling an I-864. His wife retired in 2022, and will be filling an I-864a.

What forms would they submit as evidence along with their tax transcripts for their pension and social security?

I did a quick google search and want to make sure I have the correct forms.

My father would submit: tax transcript, W-2 and 1099-R

His wife would submit: W-2 (for the part of the year she did work), and a SSA-1099 if she received any SSA

Are these the correct forms, or are there any others they would need to submit?
