Thank you! These are the forms I have saved so far. I will be attempting to fill these out when I have time later this week. Please let me know if I may be missing anything else.

Hello,
I tried reading the guides but I'm still confused between the differences and where to start. My main concern is avoid my wife being deported. My wife and I got married on March 19, 2020. She originally came to the United States under a F-1 Student Visa. Since we're married now, we discussed and agreed for her not going to school until she's gotten her green card. Reason being is that cost of tuition would be cheaper for non-international students if she decided to pursue higher education, and also health concerns regarding COVID-19. However, she will be out of status if she does not resume her college education as I believe it violates the terms and agreements of her F-1 Student Visa. We're thinking of attempting to do everything without of a lawyer, but I'm not sure where do start. Here are some questions I have, please forgive my lack of understanding in this topic.
1. I'm unclear regarding the differences between K-1 and K-3, but I believe I should follow the K-3 route because we're married? Is the "Step-by-Step Guide on Filing an I-130 for Spouse Inside the US" the guide we want to be following?
2. I think these are the forms we need to fill out, but I'm not sure what I may be missing:
- I-130
- I-485
- I-693 (F1 Student)
- I-864
- I-765 (F1 Student)
Thank you in advance!

Thank you for the recommendation for the I-131 form. Looks like the form requires a fee of $600 (Form Fee + Biometric Services). As I'm reading, is it possible to get the form waived since we'll also be filing an I-485 form? (see screenshot below)
Thank you! That's great to know since I can also churn credit card sign up bonuses and earn cashback to offset the cost of all these forms. Is it possible to pay all the forms with a credit card?
