Filed: K-3 Visa Timeline
Posted

My husband's been here on a K-3 visa since the end of June. And for some reason, I'm feeling nervous about filling out the AOS/Aff of Support because of things I've learned since he's moved here. We're trying to work things out but I just need a little bit of time before moving forward.

I know USCIS wants me to file as soon as possible. But I just need time. How much time can I reasonably take? Please help.

While it is generally advised that people try and apply for AOS before their I-94 expires, in reality it is not a problem to apply some time after this period. You just need to bear in mind that every day after the I-94 expires is considered time out of status. Accrue more than 180 days out of status and you will almost certainly run into problems. There have been countless examples on VJ where people have waited 2 or 3 months after their I-94 expired with no problems whatsover.

Best of luck
