If doing K-3 you send off the I-129F when you get NOA1, Receipt of I-130.

Read the k-3 Guide. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...mp;page=k3guide

I believe Belal is already here on a k3 and waiting approval of I130 so they can file to Adjust Status. I think they have been waiting almost 2 years for I130 approval.

Belal you don't need to go back to jordan, you will need to file for an extension of your visa.

Belal needs to do a timeline and adjust profile to show this, as well as post question in correct forum such as AOS forum.

Posting, not having a timeline and the K-3 under their name tends to get an answer like the one I posted.

I-485 gets filed to adjust status only after a person is in the USA on a K-1 or K-3 visa.

What is your status? You say I-130 when that is approved it gets sent to NVC. If you were planing on K-3 you needed to send I-129F after your I-130 was received.

A few weeks after you have received your last Notice of Action indicating the approval and forwarding of your I-130 application to the NVC, the NVC will send your relative a packet of forms that you and your relative must fill out before your relative can be given an interview date with a consulate abroad. The packet will likely contain an Of-169 form, and an Of-230 part one and two forms that must be filled out by the intending immigrant. An I-864 form is also included that must be filled out by the petitioner (living in the US). The I-864 is the Affidavit of Support form that requires copies of the petitioners past 3 U.S tax returns (or tax transcripts which are free from the IRS) as well as any bank or financial records available (see the I-864 for exact requirements based on your case). The petitioner must make at least 125% above the U.S federal poverty to indicate to the U.S government that the intending immigrant will not become a federal charge to the government when he/she arrives in the U.S.. If the petitioner cannot meet these requirements, then he/she must still file an I-864, and find a joint sponsor who can meet the requirements on his/her own. When a joint sponsor is needed ,proof of their U.S citizenship or permanent residency is required. (i.e. copy of birth certificate, immigration status etc). The joint sponsor must be residing in the U.S, and he/she must also submit his/her past 3 years U.S tax returns along with bank or any other financial records available. The joint sponsor must submit his/her own I-864 form to accompany the petitioner's I-864 form.

Again what is your status? Are you filing for K-3, CR-1, or are you already in the USA? Your profile and timeline dont give me a clue as to what you are asking. My answers are based on what your timeline and profile show.

Your timeline is blank: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=6505

And your profile says filed for K-3,

And you post to the K-3 forum.

Ahh that is much clearer now.

You file I-485, but your problem is that you need NOA2 from I-130 to do it. Have you checked the case status for the I-130 on USCIS website? Perhaps they sent out an NOA2 some time ago and it got lost in the mail. If the did send one out you may need to file an I-824 to request a replacement NOA2.

When you do have NOA2 for I-130 you would follow this guide: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...mp;page=k1k3aos

Also please do update your profile to show benefit filed for as AOS not K-3.

[YuAndDan 153]

Doing a little more reading and you may not need NOA2 from the I-130 to file to Adjust status.

You need to make some inquiries about your I-130.

Once your I-130 is approved you should immediately file your I-485. Then your status will be I-485 status pending and you need not leave the country. You will need to apply for advance parole in order to leave the country and return and EADS. Make sure you have a receipt indicating that your I-485 is pending.

Belal,

It sounds as if you do not want to go back to your country for an immigrant visa? If so then you need to submit an I-485 application for adjustment of status - which you could have done a long time ago, you did not have to wait for the I-130 to be approved (seems to be a common mis-understanding among some people here at VJ).

When your I-94 (not your K3 visa) expires you will be in the same situation as a K1 whose I-94 expires:

- if you have submitted your I-485 you are 'pending adjustment' and do not begin accumulating out-of-status time.

- if you have not submitted your I-485, and have not submitted an I-539 application to extend your K3 status, then you will be out of status and will begin accumulating out-of-status time.

You do not have to submit both I-485 and I-539. Submit one or the other, I-485 if you want to adjust status or I-539 if you want to apply for an immigrant visa.

Note that I-539 is to extend your K3 status. It does not extend your K3 visa. If you apply to adjust status and want to travel outside the USA after your visa has expired and before adjustment is granted you will need advance parole, same as a K1 who is pending adjustment of status.
