We have our AOS interview tomorrow. Heres what i am taking
Wedding Pics,Rental Agreement, Health Care Verification, Car Insurance, I485 Forms, w2, employment verification, last year tax returns.
Anything else you guys can think of?
Also we have a marriage certificate from Pakistan but not from the US. Will that be an issue?
Wifey wants to travel back home in the next coming days, should we let them know at the interview?
Thanks,

I'm confused...your profile says your wife is on K3 visa, but you said in your post here that she is on K1 visa...
If she is on K3, she can go to Pakistan and re-enter the US without a problem (she just has to show proof of her ongoing I-485)...but if she is on K1 visa, she needs an approved Advance Parole (AP, or I-131) before she goes to Pakistan.
On the Visa its says " Visa "R" Type/Class "K3"
-
Their profile and timeline shows K-3 visa, if this is the case, then No AP needed to travel, K-3 is exempt from filing an I-131.
However YES K-1 requires AP Doc in hand before traveling.
A K-3 is NOT a fiancee visa, it is a Spouse K-3 visa.
so to clarify it is ok to travel with K3 Visa when applying for AOS?
-
So we applied for AOS with Work Authorization back in November 2010, we got the letter for Biometrics which was done Back in Mid December...Whats next? when should i expect to hear from USCIS?
Also my wife is currently on Fiance Visa Expires in August 2011, shes planning on going back to Pakistan to visit for a month. Is this fine to do while AOS is still in process?
Thanks,

My wife has been in the states for 8 months now, i havent filed for AOS yet. Is it too late? Also when is the latest I can apply for her?
Her K3 Visa Expires Aug2011..
Thanks.
-
You don't need to AOS or file an I-765 to get a SSN, they're not related.
Go to your nearest SS office about 2 weeks after her arrival, to give her time to show up in the system. Take the required documents and you should get her card in a couple of weeks.
shes been here for 1 week...i went today and they said i need to get a I-765 form from homeland security filled out and submit it..
-
my wife just got to the states after getting her K3. I haven't applied for AOS yet, but will be in a couple of months but wanted her to join my medical insurance at work.
I see that the work permit I-765 is $340, shes not going to be working. I just need a SS# for the purpose of putting her on my medical at work.
Is there a way around not paying the $340 fee and getting work permit (I-765 form)? what are my choices?
Thanks.
-
ok guys just getting one way then...
thanks.

Not as common as it is for males
Really depends on a lot of factors, so you will have to wait and see.
What are factors...
-
My wife has an interview next week, and i hear these stories of AP happening to mostly everybody. I was wondering if it is common for Female applicants?
Process: K3
Embassy: Islamabad

Is it true that they give you a hard time if its a arrange marriage?
-
-
They should know everything about you guys. Ask them to take pictures of wedding and pictures of you two together. They will definately ask how you were met, and how much time was spent together. Proof like pictures is important to take with.
Does anybody have example questions?
Also my fiance (wife) are married......since we are married and have all the paperwork will that be easier?
-
Her interview is at Islamabad Office at 8.00am August 3rd 2009. Any suggestions about Interview questions?

Question on Marriage Certificate
in US Citizenship General Discussion
Posted · Edited by MWA
My wife came over on a K3 status visa in 2010 and we did an adjustment of status and she got her Green Card in 2011.
I am finally filing for N-400 and she meets the 3 years requirement.
My question is I have the marriage certificate from the country we got married but i never did a court marriage when she migrated to the states. Will this be a problem for my filling of N-400? We have tax records, mortgages and Bank accounts that state both of our names. Also birth certificate of our child has her and my name as well.
Thank you.
