Hi everyone,

This is my story and I hope someone can give me some useful help. I came to this country with a J-1 visa (as an Aupair) in 2009. I extended my program and got another year on my visa (j-1 visa extension). This year my program ended but before that I decided to enroll in college as a full time student. Therefore, I was told to change my status and apply for a student visa (F-1). Everything went ok I got my change of status approved this last September and I started college. What I haven't told is that my boyfriend (he's American) popped the question right when I was doing all the change of status thing and of course I said yes!!!!!!. So we got married about a month ago and we talked about the possibility of sending all the paperwork so I could become a permanent resident (g.card holder). Right now we're looking at the contents of the packet and we're also collecting all the documents and letters. Anyway, what I'd like to know if we're doing things right. Our main concern is that I already had a change of status approved for a non-inmigrant visa and we don't know if it's gonna work. Does anyone have any suggestions, any comments or previous experiences that can help us? We appreciate any help.

Thank you in advance
