Thankyou.

I was going to add this as an addendum but decided not to.I overstayed on the VWP and I had read from one lawyer that sending a letter asking for the DO to exercise discretion on adjustment is a good idea. No idea if thats true but this is what I was going to add.It may help someone.

I came to the US on the visa waiver program with no intentions to overstay. I understand that USCIS can exercise their discretion to approve my adjustment of status application based on marriage to my husband. I humbly ask that my application is considered on it’s merits. My husband depends on me, not being close with his family, and I depend on him.

We had a short overstay from VWP, and didn't mention it at all in our letter. The overstay wasn't mentioned by the IO at all at interview, and the VWP only noticed in passing. No reason to bring it up in your letter.

Good luck!

Truly yours,

I just saw your timeline and found out that you are from New York. Could you tell me why did the EAD take so long to arrive ? What was your RFE for I-485 ? I would have to get my EAD within 90 days. Thanks
