I was in the exact same situation, I know all cases are different but I will say, read all the guides here on VJ. Come back and post any questions you have, there are a lot of very knowledgable people here who are willing to help you. Then check, doble check and then check again every single form and docs needed. A lawyer, in my opinion, is a good option when you have a complicated case.

Good luck!

Thank you! I do have a question, and maybe you know the answer. I have filed all of my aplications with my maiden name since my passport and I-94 are in my maiden name. Is that correct?

Hello,

I have been reading a lot on this forum, and so far this is the most cohesive website regarding immigration topics.

I am from Romania, just got married to my fiancee(US citizen)while on my B1/B2 visa. We have been together for over 4 years, and we have all the proof of a bona fide relationship, as well as I did not enter US with the intent of getting married. I entered Us(on my tourist visa) in July 15, and we got married in oct.10-2010. We just finished completing all the forms for an AOS, but we feel that maybe a lawyer should take a second look, just to make sure we are not overlooking something, that later might come back and haunt us. The problem is most lawyers would not work on a consultation basis, meaning they take a look at our papers and we pay them by the hour(as i know some people did). They all want to take the case from scratch. No offense to any lawyers out there, i respect their job, is just that we do not have the disposable income right now to spend on hiring a lawyer. So, what should we do? Has anyone been in this situation? What's the best way to go about this?

Thank you in advance for all of your time!!
