Oh wow your case is pretty much like mine. Same over stay B2. Been here for 12 years.
 
USCIS is not stupid. They'll look at the fact that you've been here for so long and question "Why didn't he get married" earlier if that was his goal? Right?
 
DOMA was passed in 2013, if adjusting status was my goal I would've married someone right away.
 
I actually just got married back in January. So, I am sure that you'll be fine. USCIS understand that when it comes to gay couples the whole thing is a little bit more discreet for some, either for religion views or families that are not supportive of gay people, ect.
 
And btw, I got married at the city hall, just 4 friends with us and the judge, that was it. No party after, nothing. We married January 27th, and February we moved into our new place. So we didn't have time for parties or anything.
 
My timeline for far:
-01/27/2020: Same sex couple, married to USC.
-06/29/2020: Package I-130, I-130A, I-131, I-485, I-693, I-765, I-864, I-864 joint sponsor and I-944 sent via certified mail USPS.
-06/30/2020: Delivered by USPS and signed by Chicago lockbox T Thomas.
-07/25/2020: Checks cashed.
-07/30/2020: Text messages received with case confirmation numbers.
07/31/2020: Received NOA's in the mail I-797C's.
08/05/2020: Received RFIE notification from USCIS for I-485, letter to follow via mail.

Have you heard about Covid 19?  

Hey guys;

I have a few questions regarding the form I-485, hopefully you'll be able to help me.

First at all, I entered the country under a B2-VISITOR visa in 2008, overstayed. 

The passport that had that visa was lost. Many many many years ago I had gone to a bar and had many drinks and well, I lost it. I did not lose the I-94, back in the day they'd give you a small "card" so I had that saved at home. Anyways, I have the passport number, I however don't have the expiration date on that passport.

PART 1, question #17 asks  for that passport's expiration date, and of course I don't have it. I have just my current passport that I got a few years ago.

What should do there? Type my new current's passport expiration date?


And I know this will sound ridiculous but...

PART 7, question #1 I am Hispanic yes, but then PART 7, question #2 says "race", I don't know, am I white? lol I'm definitely none these others (Asian, Black, American Indian, Hawaiian)

PART 8, question #15, have you ever been denied a visa? The first time I applied for my B2, I was denied. Is that YES to that question?
PART 8, question #16, have you ever worked in the USA without authorization? Duh, I've been here for 14 years, many random jobs, got paid cash, personal checks, ect, is that a YES?
PART 8, question #17 have you ever violated the terms or conditions of your non-immigrant status?  I mean, I'm an overstay, is that a YES?
PART 8, question #78 have you ever renounced US citizenship to avoid being taxed by the united states? I don't even have a green card yet, is that a NO?
PART 9 question #1 are you requesting an accommodation because of your disabilities or impairments? I'm not disabled or impaired, is that a NO?

I know these are silly questions but I'm trying to see how people in the same boat have answered these questions.
