hi!

I'm applying to register adjust status. I entered the country as a tourist (B2) on december 2013 and got married on may 2014 with my present husband who is american. What do I have to check on the PART 2 of the I 485 form called Application Type? Is that "b" which says "my spouse or parent applied for adjustment of status"?

No, it is A.

B refers to a being a derivative of a spouse's petition, which does not happen at all for spouses of USCs. USCs are not applying for AOS; they are already USCs.

AOS for my husband
8/17/10: INTERVIEW DAY (day 123) APPROVED!!

ROC:
5/23/12: Sent out package
2/06/13: APPROVED!

Posted (edited)

ok If it is A I have to provide a "copy of the approval notice, or a relative....". What is it?

It says you can include a pending petition. Which is the I-130. Have to read through the parentheses.

the fact it is a I 130 is not very clear through the parentheses...

but thanks for your answer anyway.

You are right that it isn't clear.

A I-130 is an immediate relative petition, that, when approved, will give you a visa number immediately.

This form is used by all people in many different situations, so they can't just say I-130.
