You are not adjusting from a family based visa. You have posted in the wrong section, you are adjusting from tourist/VWP.

Depending on where you live, adjusting from a VWP with an overstay, may not be possible. Good luck with your Journey.

Your I-129f was approved in 5 days from your NOA1 date.

Your interview took 67 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

AOS was approved in 2 months and 8 days without interview.

ROC was approved in 3 months and 2 days without interview.

It is family based, My wife is a US citizen and I talk to a lawyer and told me i can adjust in family base that's the only way to adjust from VWP.

Did u do your package yourself?

Yeah thats good. I did it myself too. Hubby just signed what he needed to sign.. And its all good! Just make sure you have a clear copy of your i94 front and back and the visa too showing the admission date. I got an RFE for that. LOL And don't forget the cover letter, to make sure everything is in there!

You're applying for I-485 right? or not. LOL

The person is not applying for the 485 they are applying for the whole entire package with I-130 and beyond. They may not be ok because VWP overstays are not being processed in some places anymore and being automatically denied and sent to removal proceedings. It is a TOTALLY different process.

Excuse me that was EXCEPTIONALLY rude. You are NOT filing JUST the I-485. You are also filing the I-130 which is a COMPLETELY different process to the one done by people in THIS forum which is people AOSing from K visas.

You are running the risk of immediate denial because you are AOSing from an expired VWP. It depends on where you are filing from whether you will be put on indefinite hold or immediate denial and deportation with NO chance of appeal.

I am reporting this thread to be moved. Your personal attack at Inky is a violation of VJ TOS and was completely uncalled for and inappropriate.

Repost. Personal attacks are a violation of TOS, and one personal attack and post quoting it removed. Further violations will result in administrative action.

Hey there and welcome to the board.

Don't panic! There are a few of us who are about to file our AOS packets. I am sending mine in on Monday and it is a AOS packet which consists of the I-130, I-1485 and the I-765. I came on the VWP in 1998.

Depending on where you live, you could have issues as relates to having your petition adjusted successfully. Can I ask you which state you live in. Depending on which state you live in you may be headed for either (a)Instant denial, (b) Application being placed on hold or © Approval which is always discretionary.

I live in NY State which is a state that is currently approving VWP adjustments without any real problem.

If you live in NJ state then a case such as ours would be placed on hold.

If we lived in San Diego, California then we would not file. Our case will be denied.

So that is the most important question for you. You have already overstayed so the situation is trickier.

I will post some links of another about to filer which will give you more information about how to put the packet together.

Be Blessed!

Moderators.

This actually needs to be moved to Adjustment of Status from tourist visa.

Thanks

I have moved this topic from the AOS from a family visa to Aos from a work, student & Tourist visa forum as the OP is attempting to adjust from a tourist (VWP ) visa

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”
