submission of Form I-864 and I-693 along with I-485

[kashif01 2]

Hi,

I am in USA, married to a citizen and I am sending the first set of papers to USCIS for adjustment of status. However the instructions of form I-485 are confusing. plz clarify

The instructions of form I-485 mention point 9A and point 7A to submit the I-864(affidavit of support) and form I-693 (medical examination and vaccination report) while sending I-485. Am I supposed to send both these forms as well at the first submission itself or the authorities will ask for them.

Will be thankful for a clear and detailed reply. many thanks

Yes, as per our Guide: http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide2 you include those.

Yes, you are supposed to include both of these forms in your package that you are mailing in order to adjust your status. If you dont mail them, they will ask for them as RFE

If your DS-3032 indicates all your vaccinations are up-to-date, then you can submit that or find a civil surgeon (CS) to transcribe the information onto the I-693. If your DS-3032 is not complete, then you will need to find a CS to complete the I-693 part about vaccination and give your the appropiate shots. You do not need another medical examine--only the vaccination part needs to be completed. You also must submit an affidavit of support (I-864) for the USC sponsoring the immigrant. If the USC does not meet the poverty guidelines then a cosponsor will need to be found and they must also complete an I-864 and provide the required supporting documents. Are you also going to file for advance parole (AP)--I-131--and employment authorization document (EAD)--I-765? They are free when filing the I-485 and allow you to leave and return to the US and work before the green card (GC) arrives.

You include everything as well as all supporting documents in one envelope with the application fee of $1070. You might want to have a look at the Guides--this is for a K-1 visa and you posted in the spousal visa section which is strange as you would have entered on the spousal visa and already have completed the I-864 and would receive your GC in a few week after arriving. Did you come on a tourist visa, got married and are now filing for AOS? -- here on VJ for some information on what is requried to be filed for most AOS

They are not adjusting from a K-1. They are doing concurrent I-130 and I-485 filing. They need the full medical.

OP> Please post a topic only once, in only one (the correct AOS from W,S,& T visas) forum. No need to post the same question in multiple forums.

Follow the guide and provide everything all at once > http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide2

~ Moved from IR-1/CR-1 Process to AOS from Work, Student & Tourist Visas ~

Submit the brown envelope and keep the copy for future use and make a photo copy of it too.

Just submit the sealed envelope, keep the copy with a duplicate of your whole application. In the unlikely event the postage or the USCIS loses your application, you will already have everything to go.
