I met my husband while he was here in the US on a B-2 Visa. We met, dated and decided to get married all within the 6 months that he was here on his current visit.

Now we are getting started on the paperwork for AOS and I'm wondering if there is anything specific I need to be aware of. I see a lot of info on here but not much that is specific to the B-2 Visa....so just checking.

Any input will be appreciated. Thank you!

My wife came with B1 business visa, they asked just few questions to see if she was on legitimate business trip.

Most people here adjusting from B2 visa. It's a visitor visa. If your husband came with the intention to visit, you have nothing to worry about.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
