I would probably make an info pass appointment at your local office since it's been over the 90 days.

You could also call but I think infopass would get more results.

If your AOS is granted, you will be an example for tens of thousands that it is possible to enter the US as a spouse of a USC with just a visitor's visa and adjust status without problems.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

I'm also curious to see if this AOS is granted.

If it is, I don't understand why have the K-1s and CR-1s. Might as well give all USC spouses/fiances single-entry tourist visas to enter the country and then subsequently AOS. Seems a little unfair that some people can get away with this while others have to remain separated for 6-8 months.

Which, my friends, is what I expect to happen. We read on this site over and over and over again that nobody should even attempt to enter the US with a B1/B2 or under the VWP, get married, and try to adjust status, and that it is really a fraud case if somebody who is already married to a USC enters as a visitor and applies for AOS, but my guess is that this case will show that reality really differs from the formal framework.

If the O.P. gets her AOS approved, we can be fairly certain that it doesn't matter how and with what kind of visum one enters the US, already married or not, how long he or she overstayed, as everything, absolutely everything in this regard becomes irrelevant once one applies for AOS, at which time the I.O. is only interested in whether or not the marriage is legit.

Therefore, it might turn out that the K-3, K-1, IR-1, and even CR-1 visas are only hurdles in the goal of reaching the US quickly and become a LPR. WVP and B2 are faster and as efficient. Maybe.

Interesting thoughts, Bob.

I actually think that the K-1s and CR-1s need to be abolished. All USC spouses/fiances should be granted single-entry tourist visas -- having proved bonafide relationship and marriage at the interview -- to enter the country and then subsequently AOS. Seems a little unfair that some people can get away with this while others have to remain separated for 6-8 months. This roundabout way of keeping people apart just seems to be cruel.

It took my husband 4 days his visa to come marry me in India.

If your marriage is legit and bonafide, you need not worry. Just be prepared in terms of evidence of continuing marriage/documentation and Inshallah you'll be fine. Read my timeline. I wasn't even asked if i entered on a B-2. The AO's mostly focus on your relationship. Good Luck.

PS: Just don't lie to them. It will come back and bite you in the Behind.
