Thank you all, I think we will stick to October and push the trip back until the travel document arrives. Appreciate the help!

Okay, I'm just struggling to understand when is an appropriate time to do antyhing. I've been here for a year, my partner and I were together for 3 years before that. I travel home regularly to see family and friends, so finding a time to get married, file the paper work, and wait for the travel document is difficult. It seems as though you are stuck in the country from the moment you can actually marry until then process you, which is also more difficult because I entered on a J-1... I am by no means trying to get around immigration law or commit fraud, I am trying to understand how a J-1 holder can apply for adjustment of status without it being assumed its fraud or will malintent.

Hi @Crazy Cat , sorry I just want to make sure I have this correct. So if we marry in October, then don't file until April (considering 90 days after last entry on J-1 visa), we will still be under scrutiny because we got married before but didn't file until later?

I will add that I am not subject to the two year home residency

Hi all, can't we just marry in October and then not file until after the trip?

My partner and I are getting married in October and will file for an adjustment of status soon after. I am due to fly back with him in December for Christmas with my family. Can I travel to and from the US on my J-1 visa or do I need to apply for an i-130? If so, how long does this take? Thank you in advance!
