Got our interview date. Its January 16th.

Hi guys!
 
Just wanted to say hi, thats all... 
 
Shortly after our wedding, we lost our cat.. The younger one I brought from Japan.. I believe it was one of the most painful things I had to go through.But it did made us stronger as a couple...
 
well however yeah hope everyone's journey is going well. I have no updates so far. Love you guys 

Well technically you got married during the 90 days so you did your part of the contract and respected the conditions of the Visa. Never read anything from the USCIS saying that the AOS must be filled during the 90 days, it is just that you don't really have a status between your Visa expiration and the moment the USCIS get your AOS Application. I am not a specialist but never heard about anybody being in trouble filling a few times after their K-1 visa expired. 

OMG i just saw another GC approval in Florida after 2 mos... How i wish its the same for everyone.

Welcome here! So we do October again. 😍. Hope we all are as lucky as the few ones from July who got their GC approved in less than 3 mos! 🎉

Just done with my AOS interview yesterday, it’s a painless experience 😊 
Me and my husband answered all the questions that the Officer asked, gave all the documents the he asked. 
 
Then after that rhe officer handed me a paper, me and my husband put our signature there and the officer put a date stamp. Then he said that he will give my papers to the supervisor to check if all is well, then he said If all is well they will semd my Card on the mail within 2 weeks, but if they still need some papers from me they will let me know by mail then I just need to send it to them. 
 
Hoping to get my Green Card soon 😊☝🏻🤞🏻 Goodluck everyone!

I enclosed this in my mail @Drillerone . I grouped the forms with their corresponding support documents. Just make sure you go to USCIS website for the updated forms.
I may have overdone the supporting documents for Form 1-864, but I just submitted everything I have. Hope this makes filling those forms up easier for you!

yep. I actually remember how relieved I was after we finally sent our application. It hasnt been long since we just applied last month but it actually feels like a distant memory already...hahaha
It'll get better.

What is the Form I-131 I looked for it in google it says Application for Travel Document... did you submit all of these forms all at once?

Nope, you didnt. I don't think so. I actually hated that I applied for SSN first. For some reason our office here is not familiar with the process even if the first time I went there, I specified that it is under K1 (its not everyday they have to process K1. Had to go back to the office after waiting over a month to talk to another officer and stressed again that its a K1 process-got it a week later. I also wanted to change my name when I went there,bringing with me my marriage cert but they said NO-I didn't wanna argue with them anymore. So I would need to go back there again once I get my GC or EAD card to change my name. 
 
This delayed my AOS filing I have to wait for my actual SSN to arrive so I can put my SSN nos in the forms.
I applied my K2's SSN thru EAD, btw.

congratulations on your journey your almost over with am just starting and already did messed up  

You will have it figured out. I think you have mostly of the supporting documents in your hands since we had them before we came here. Print your I-94 also, you need to send copies along with each form.
 
Just follow the list I sent, if you have questions feel free to ask. So far I didn't get an RFE yet so figured I filed them correctly. I am just waiting for my interview now. My status said it is ready to be scheduled. Just hoping it will soonest
 

Yes, you should apply EAD with your AOS. Once you start filling out the forms, you will see in Form I-797 a box asking if you need to request your SSN. Just answer yes.

I didn't know that its all a catastrophe coz all we were worried about before what just getting married and not thinking of other legal documents that we should do. is it possible to send my application all together the AOS and EAD?

I wouldnt bother to go to the SSA. You wont be able to apply in your married name as it does not match the name on your I94 or passport.

Does this mean we can skip it for now coz everyone I talked to about SSN They got theirs two weeks after their arrival here and it was already too late for me coz I am already married. I just am one month over with the two weeks time they were saying. Am not sure I am totally confused. Where should I focus now... is it the AOS and just wait for the SSN later?

thats why i am very much thankful for those who takes their time to help out like you. Likewise me and my husband we only are doing everything on our own. filing papers already cost a lot what more hiring a lawyer.

no problem @Drillerone.
We also did it on our own, this site has been very helpful to us. Everybody is willing to help here.
