I know that this will open a can of worms and I don't wish to get into the story right now. It was not our plans to get married, but circumstances have meant that we have been led here.

So I just wanted to know what forms do I need to send off to AOS from VWP, do I need both the i-130 and the i-485?

Many thanks

Overstay is irrelevant. However, the San Diego field office has been denying VWP AOS applications where the applicant overstayed, and applicants adjusting for VWP are not allowed an appeal. Hence why I said she should be fine unless she has an overstay AND is adjusting in San Diego.

Agree with ceadsearc. AOS from the VWP when the I-94 is expired is still risky. Best to AOS before the I-94 expires.
