What happens now

[beppo 8]

Hello again all.

Was just wondering if anyone can put some input what happens now with the I-130, I-485 and I-765 that I sent of this March?

As far as I can tell the files are at the National Benefits Center, wherever that is. I got my biometrics done yesterday for the I-485 and I-765(even though my date was 23rd May)

I just to get some sort of heads up on whats coming ahead so I can be prepared on anything that will be happening. Does my documents get sent to either Vermont or California or another center?

Thanks again.

You will receive an interview date. Now all you can do is wait for your ead approval and interview date..

As far as I know, only k1s are forwarded to CSC.. you will have an interview which isn't a bad thing because you will at least know when youll get your GC.

Reason I was asking, I seen on here a few people's AOS have been sent to CSC and some didn't get an interview.

You are reading the wrong forum and getting confused. This forum is for people who entered on K-1 visas. Their relationships were already scrutinized at the consular phase before their fiance visas, so sometimes their interviews are waived.

You entered on another visa (we can tell because you filed a I-130) and therefore will have a mandatory interview. You can now wait for your EAD to be processed and your interview letter to come. Good luck.

Also, the forum for your type of AOS (and mine) is right below this one.

They entered on K-1 but it has been more than 2 years since they got married, that's why I-130, I believe.

[Harpa Timsah 13,258]

Ahh, thanks for the clarification, and sorry for the assumption. I am pretty sure they will still have a mandatory interview, unless there is some special K-1 after more than 2 years rule. OP - I would suggest you join this progress thread here

Because it has been so long since the K-1, your process is basically like this now. Good luck.

That forum is for work,student and tourist visa's. Don't think I would be welcome there lol.

I know, but because you waited so long to get married, that is really your forum, because your processes are the same. The filers in this forum are basing their I-485 on the approved I-129F and their marriage in 90 days. You are basing your I-485 off of the I-130 you sent in, and are therefore a I-130/I-485 concurrent filer, just like they are.

You said your case was exceptional in the K-1 forum, and were having trouble knowing what was the next step here. That's why I suggested the other forum, because your process is exactly like theirs now.

Like I said, you will have a mandatory interview, just like them, whereas people in this forum might get transferred to CSC. I know you entered on K-1, but since the marriage happened after 90 days, you are not using the K-1 in any way except as a legal entry. K-1 people who marry within 90 days use their I-129F to apply for AOS.

Just trying to help - if they give you slack over there I will slap them with a wet noodle! But I am sure they are really nice.

Good luck.

There seems to be a lot of confusion on this topic. From your timeline you enetered on a K1 and was married within 90 days. Being out of status for a K1 entrant is normally forgiven by the USCIS.

If you sent in the AOS I-485, EAD I-765, and AP I-131 you will wait for the National Benenfits Center (NBC)to send your AP and EAD. The NBC will forward your I-485 to CSC or to your local office for an interview.

Was the post on sending the I-130 a typo? Because sending an I-130 was not neccessary and will cause some confusion to the USCIS.

OP is adjusting status more than 2 year after marriage, that's why I-130 was neccessary.

The main reason my wife sent in the I-130 was to get the 10 year GC and not the 2 year.

We might get it and we may not, but we didn't want to take the chance of not as we filed 2 years after our marriage.

And yes I did marry within the 90 days of arriving on the K1.

Thanks again everyone.

Oh my mistake on the marriage date. Everything else still stands though. Good luck!
