Hi,

We were just married this past weekend and now need to start working on her AOS. We will be filing for her and her daughters (2). How long do we have from the time we got to file the AOS?

I think we have some medical items to clear up before we file - missing immunizations, etc. Do we need to complete those first?

Thanks,

Lyn and Art

There is no set deadline per se. The immigration law does change depending on how long you have been married--i.e. a conditional GC if less than two years and a 10 year GC if married for more than 2 years. Most people suggest that the AOS should be completed before the second wedding anniversy so this issue does not come up. You need to get the medical issues resolved before filing the AOS as you need to file I-693. Also remember that the medical exam is valid for one year so make sure you file your AOS within that time frame or another medical is required by a civil surgeon here in the US.

Good luck,

DAve

1, get the medical stuff completed you will need this for AOS.

2, Submit the complete AOS package as soon as you can.

Make sure you have separate checks for each person and that they are attached to the appropriate AOS packet for the person.

Mail them all together in the same envelope but separated by paper clips.

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.

Ok, so to make sure I understand this - no issues with filing her AOS after her I-94 has expired and we need a I-485 for each person?

Thanks,
