K1 VISA EXPIRE

[doodlebugg 10]

Hi Mohamed,

What the others have told you is right - You do have a new 90 day period to get married after you arrive in the USA.

The USCIS also expects you to file your application for 'Adjustment Of Status' (AOS) within the same 90 day period, but you must have a copy of your new marriage certificate for the application package. So why not try to prepare the AOS package before the wedding so you are ready ... get married ... add some wedding pictures and a copy of your marriage certificate, send it off immediately (or after the honeymoon, if you have one). Then you can sit back and really relax for the first time in months! If the USCIS does not receive your AOS application within 90 days of your arrival, you are officially 'Out of Status' - who wants that?????

I know it all seems like a rush to get everything done now your visa has arrived ... But do try to send off the AOS application within the 90 days if you can. Some cities take many weeks to return a marriage certificate to couples after their wedding, but that's the only good reason I can think of for a late application.

One last thing - I notice you mentioned your wife and child ? If you are coming to the USA on a K-1 visa it is for fiances to enter the USA to get married ... it is not intended for husbands/wives to use .... It is much safer to call each other fiance, just in case it confuses the USCIS.

Anyway - Congratulations on your visa, by the way!

thanks for ur help

but should i apply adjust of status be sep16th or i will have new day after 90 i enter usa?

That's a very good point. The Egyptian consulate is ok with calling her your wife because they are aware of the situation in Egypt where you weren't allowed to marry americans but when you get to your port of entry you need to remember to call her your fiance.

Good luck and sorry for being in a mood. lol

Bridget, you can be in any mood your heart desires. This process makes us loose who we really are sometimes. I am sure that although you are happy for us three today, you must feel a lot of sadness because you are still playing the waiting game and being jacked around by the Embassy.

As I said before to someone, others may take your turn, but they cannot take your time. Your season is about to come and then it will be your time. But it will come!

Bridget while we are all very happy for everyone who gets their visa it is truly hard to sit and watch others fly through the process without even one day of checks. Especially when your wait has been sooooooo long. So we understand the different moods this process can cause. So know we all support you and pray for you everyday.....that your journey will end soon and you will be reunited with your loved one soon. Your in my prayers everyday.

I just wanted to make it clear that the ONLY stipulation is getting married within the 90 days. There is NO time limit when you file AOS. Yes, after 90 days you are out of status, but that does not affect when you apply for AOS.

Yes, you have made a very good point. It is better to file for AOS as soon as possible after the marriage.
