Married outside 90 days

She could have been more tactful. A cite would have been nice, instead of acting like gods on high. Please pardon my nOObness for trying to help. Peace!

That's a lot of projection. Where is your citation?

Mine is in the instructions to the I-485, Who May File Form I-485?

You may apply to adjust status if you were admitted to the United STates as the K-1 fiance(e) of a US citizen and you rmarried that citizen within 90 days of your entry.

If the applicant has not married within her 90 days K-1 admission, but did marry outside those days, she is an Immediate Relative (spouse) of a US citizen and may apply for adjustment under that category. Which requires an I-130 petition.

This has been covered several times on VJ; you can look up those posts for the INA citation detailing the expired K's options.

This answer is completely incorrect. Wrong.

If a K-1 marries her USC petitioner after the 90 day K-1 admission period, she must also file I-130 from her US spouse with her AOS application (an additional $355).

She does NOT need to leave the US for a new visa. She should remain in the US until she gets her green card due to potential overstay issues.

OP is right to be concerned about flying to HI; I don't think anyone can reassure you that it's OK. The passport + marriage certificate offers her no immigration status.

Thank you meaxauna for setting the message straight....

The TSA is not suppose to verify immigration status but they can and have

You both are Spot On, thanks.

I should have gotten her state non-driving ID before we married and this would be a non issue.

I have checked all the states around me, NY appears to be more flexible and I'll give that a go.

Just a word for those here on a K1 and still do everything within the timeline regulations.

This may not apply to all states but if you want a state non-driving ID....do it before marriage, afterwards the status changes and the State DMV will only consider it's issuance based upon the beneficary's current status. Accordingly, your in DMV limbo until your AOS is approved.

I can bow to your experience in this matter, however, consider most people in this regional forum don't have a clue who you are. Tread lightly, is all I am saying, or in the case of an organizer, move the thread to the appropriate forum.

Ooops, sandali lang. Parang nainis yata sa akin ang mga matagal na dito sa VJ. LOL. Yan ang napapala ng mga tao na pumasok sa bahay namin na hindi kumakatok muna.

You're correct, but this is a discussion thread and everything here is an opinion. I think therefore, I post.

with that approach then you need to accept the occasional "thwack" with a two by four....

Hay naku! Sana wag niya paluin asawa niya ng dos por dos!

You need to borrow the money to file for her AOS. Doing otherwise is not fair to your spouse.

Thanks for the thought, can I pay you back over 2 years? Better yet, I'll be sure to include the 765 EAD.... so I can put her butt to work and return your loan sooner. How's that sound? PM me, so we can work out the details.

Doing otherwise is not fair to your spouse.

Life's not fair, my friend.....she and I are very happy and do everything together......I'm not going to allow a minor government obstacle get in the way....that would be unfair

that's probably because most of the people in this regional forum are noobs. meauxna is a vj treasure - you might note her join date too.

I just looked at my join date. damn, I just got older... sorry for contributing to this thread being sidetracked....

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

I think the OP got his answers, so why not have a little fun with the thread?

[af_phils 0]

Due to circumstances way beyond our control it happened..and to make matters worse the visa expired 7/14/08 and the marriage took place on 8/5/08.

I know what has to be done for the AOS.....but money is extremely tight at the moment, so filing the AOS won't happen any time soon.

Here is my dilemma...I live on the east coast and my employer is sending me to Hawaii for a month and I want to take my asawa. My concern is travel. Although it is within the US, if I show her passport and marrage cert to airport security will I risk an immigration problem and her possible detention or deportation?

I tried to get a state non-driving ID but they won't issue one in her current status, because the marrage took place, she is technically out of K-1 status.

Other than what I should have done, Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Read this link from another forum. AOS wasn't filed in a timely matter, she was randomly checked by border patrol (not near border) while driving and was hauled to jail and the deportation process was started.

as vj started in 03, there's just a few of those around. 04 is a bit rare too.

To the OP:

FWIW here is another current thread here on VJ talking about someone going back to the home country to help with an ill relative without the AOS -->> http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...205414&st=0

The surprises in life can cause you both some unanticipated stress.
