US Immigration from Thailand

Getting ready to submit my I-485 submission and didn't notice any thing pertaining to the Bio metrics (G-325A) and I went through this process back in 2007 and remember a page giving Social Security permission to share info signed by me.

Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this topic.

On Part 6 Sponsor's Employment and Income, questions 24a, 24b, and 24c ask for my AGI for the current year and past 2 years' tax returns.

I sold my business in 2016, worked for the acquiring company for 4 1/2 years and in November 2020 embarked on a what I planned as a 3 year sabbatical from corporate America. At the time I was married to my ex. We filed Married Filing Jointly for 2021 and 2022 during which time I had no income; however, my ex wife's income was reported on our taxes for 2021, 2022. Do I report the AGI from the 1040 for 2021 and 2022 even though all the "income" was produced by the ex? Or do I report $0 since none of the income was mine? Since I am filing an AOS, I would think that only MY income would count.

My K1 Fiance (Jinny from Thailand) arrived on Jan 22nd 2024. We were married on Feb 14th 2024 (Valentines Day) We are now on the adjustment of status journey and are confused as to what forms need to be filed.

We've been under the impression that we need to file the I-130 and I-130a and I-131 to adjust status to Green card. Now I'm seeing conflicting data concerning this. I've been questioning Why are we filling out the I-130 as it pertains to relatives and there are no relatives involved. Have more questions but this will start me in the correct direction.

Thank You for any information you may provide.

My story began in November 2023 while I was traveling around Bangkok. I found a hotel on Booking. com and out of the blue I booked it for a couple days to try. It was very close to the train station. That was one of the reasons why I booked it. The day before I was due to check in I thought I would go and find the hotel. When I walked in, there was a lovely lady working. I remember I could barely talk to her. And she had the most beautiful smile that made my heart just melt. She seemed very busy but I asked I could see the room and she took time out to show me the room. I thought that was very nice of her. After we got back to the desk I introduced myself and she gave me her name too. I told her see you tomorrow and again I was pleased to see that big smile.

The rest of that day I just could not stop thinking about her. The next day I was very happy to see her again. At this point I wanted to know more about her but didn t know what to say. The first thing that popped in my mind was to say your husband is a lucky guy. And she said I m not married, so then I said well your boyfriend, and she said I have no boyfriend. I have to say I was very happy to hear that. Later that day I was looking at booking a dinner cruise on the river but I did not want to go alone. I was very nervous because I wanted to ask her to join me. So the next day I got up the nerve and asked her if she would like to join me for the dinner cruise. She asked if she could think about it and I said of course. The next day she agreed and we both seemed very happy about our date. Our first date was spectacular for me, it was on November 26th. We were on a beautiful boat cruising the river and a great dinner and she looks so beautiful. It was a night I will never forget.

Now when I think about it, I have never went to a hotel and asked to see the room. Something brought me into that hotel on that date at that time. I feel very blessed to have met her. The next night on the 27th she asked me if I would like to go to the Loy Krathong festival after her work and of course I said yes. It was a lovely evening she showed me about the Thai cultures. On the 28th I asked her to join me for dinner at Iconsiam and she agreed. We had a very nice dinner on the 6th floor overlooking the river. We spent the next 7 weeks seeing each other almost everyday. And I proposed to her on Janurary 9th and she said yes. I had to leave Thailand on the 15th of Jan. We filed our K1 visa on Valentines day of 24. My question is, does Immigration look at the length of time we have spent together? I really did fall in love with this girl. I miss her terribly now

wife just informed me that her combo card expires near the end of March. We went the K1 visa route and Applied for Adjustment of status in July 21'

We haven't heard anything for a long time on the AOS.. We have heard other AOS in Utah are over 2.5 years now.
We have a barcode page from the original combo card that says to tear off this portion and send in to speed up your extension or replacement card.

I have searched for combo card extensions and did not see any recent threads. I've read they dont issue combo cards anymore.

I've read there is an automatic 180 extension and not the 540 days. we are not planning any travel out of country this year but you never know. She is employed in our 2 person sole proprietor company.

Can anyone direct me to the correct forms to send in? I've seen some cover letters and list of forms to send in but that was real old info

Thanks Randy and Mayuree Married for 2.8 years and doing ok.
