AOS Guide

Make sure you do it ASAP, your currently out of status, and it can cause problems with ICE.

Basically you are a illegal alien and if caught you are subject to deportation until you file for AOS!

Doesn't happen much but it has happened. Especially near Mexican border.

Out of Status:

Out-of-Status

A person is defined "out of status" if the person violates the terms and conditions of the person's immigration status in the United States. The following are examples of a violation of a person's immigration status: unauthorized employment; failure to attend classes without legal excuse; staying in the United States beyond the expiration date of a Form I-94.

Well - I wouldn't go as far as to say "illegal" - the OP entered legally, just merely out of status, a difference, subtle, but still there.

All will be taken care of once they get the NOA for the AOS.

Yeah well if caught they may l have to attend a removal proceeding and could be deported. May not be "illegal" but I don't know what else you'd call it.

It recently happened in Texas. Border patrol check a good distance from the border busted a filipina for such. They had to fork up $4,000 for a lawyer to beat the remval proceedings.

Yes MANY get away with not filing for AOS before the I-94 expires. Some even wait 2 years so they won't have to remove conditions and they can get a 10 year GC but they are pushing it. I guess if you lived in Alaska you wouldn't have to worry about much.

Most filipinas are brown skinned and could easily be mistaken for a Mexican.

Bottomline is to stay away from border states if you are out of status.

Its total BS because it is impossible to get a green card before the I-94 expires. Whenever I bring my wife to any sort of appointment I tell her to bring her AOS receipt just in case a problem arises about her "expired" I-94.

Surely the fact that the fiance/e become an immediate relative of a US citizen gives him/her some leway on that. (I heard this from a Lawyer).

From USCIS = "Immediate relatives of a U.S. citizen can immigrate to the United States without being subject to any numerical restrictions,"

I only ask because I have seen this question ALL around the board and it seems people have very different opinions that I would like to hear.

Yeah there is NO way you can get the GC in 90 days. However to be legal alls you have to do is file to adjust status. You won't be out of status then. You only need the NOA1 which puts your status as "adjusting status" and you're are OK.

Hard to do that also sometimes as it can be difficult to get the marriage certificate in time sometimes.

I "heard" especially from a lawyer don't count.

Well we got caught in the loophole because we tried to get an SSN after the I-94 expired, but after we had a the AOS receipt (and were told we couldn't get the SSN). Basically when you are awaiting AOS you are in limbo & that's the part that irritates me.

you can be married to a USC and still be deported if you do not have "status"... The leeway you are granted is that as long as you entered with inspection then if you are married to a USC then your status can be "repaired" from inside the USA. But you still need to follow the process...
