its like when they asked him to bring in his passport we thought yes this is it but instead they gave another hold. they said it would be weeks if not months several times so its like i didnt understand why they wanted his pasport and why they wasnt sending it back ( we didnt ask for it back of course) so dhl called and said they have his passport so he was like ok is anything with it and they said they wasnt sure what was with it so it was like omg this is it yes or no.. so he called me cause he said he couldnt hardly type at all. im thinking we are for sure going to get an attorney onit for his adjustment cause this was allot of stress so somone else can deal with it. the sad part is i think hes going to wait till around the 1st of october to come because he promised his mom to visit for EID but im ok just glad its over.. anyone hear if there has been pproblems on waiting like that to come. somone told me that he should arrive within 30 days

How is it for the driving license whats the first thing to get started?

Step one, read the instructions, you can get them at a license beaurea (however that is spelled)/dmv location. Then you take the learners permit, some people takes classes etc, after getting your permit, get as much time in driving with someone who has a license as possible, then you take the test, it's not too complicated... however, unlike american citizens foreigners probably have to wait an extra couple weeks for DHS to send the actual license, if you haven't done AOS yet, then the license is probably only good for the amount of time left on your I-94 (maybe a few weeks longer than that), if you have an EAD already that might allow them to give a longer license period of say a year, but I don't know... I just know if you go before AOS they will likely issue you a license but the expiration date will likely be less than a year away. BTW, my wife is going to take the written test today, that'll be the easy part... the hard part... getting the necessary experience driving to pass the actual driving exam.

im thinking we are for sure going to get an attorney onit for his adjustment cause this was allot of stress so somone else can deal with it.

AOS is a cake walk, and fairly easy, you applied for a visa for a man from the scary towels on heads section of the world, that automatically means there is going to be some ludicrous background checks and special processing etc to get the visa... it's pretty much common knowledge on this site. You can do the AOS on your own, and I wouldn't expect it to be any more complicated than anyone else here, even if it takes longer than average, you'll still be together and I believe the EAD/AP is pretty much always done within 3 months or less (I think 2 for the AP). I'm guessing that there are still some extra hoops to jump through even in AOS for people from the middle east... but the only thing I can think of is that they are more likely to insist on doing the AOS interview (most k-1's AOS's are processed at CSC and no interview is done usually). Anyway, save your money on the AOS.
