Is form I-130 necessary?

[skb 0]

Hello everyone! My husband and I just got married after having gone through the K-1 visa process.

Now we are waiting for our certified license to arrive (4-6 weeks) and then starting the AoS process.

My first question is this: Does anyone know if the I-130 Petition for an Alien Relative is needed? The Visa Journey overview does not list it, but the USCIS website does. Ideas?

NOOOOOOOO.... I-485 Adjustment of Status is your next step (AP & EAD as well if you want!!)

I-130 is only needed if you're doing AOS from a visa other than a K-1.

Oh! Thank you!

Here are the documents that I think we will need to file, including the optional ones:

-G-325A

-I-485

-I-864

-I-765

-I-693

-I-131

Does this look correct?

skb,

Depends on whether or not the marriage took place within 90 days of entry to the USA.

Did yours?
