Hi guys.. Let me try Explain about my friend situation, He is U.S. citizen, He met her in 2009 in her country, she was separated but not divorced, she and her ex husband agree to be married because of the kids school and health insurance ( her ex husband wasn't the kids daddy but he did took care of them) Anyway.. She always came to USA to visit his family , her kids came to USA also twice for vacation and he was most of the time in her country because he worked there. In 2013 he back to work in USA so she was frequently coming to USA. She finally got divorce in January of this year, and they got married in July here in USA. They went to Mexico for vacation, and came back, is this going to be a problem now once he wants apply for her adjustment of status?

What do they have to send first, I-130.. Once it's approved and then the rest of the package.. I-465.. I-864 etc..?

Thank you guys...

Since she's legally divorced and they're married, yes she can adjust her status in the U.S. All of the documents are sent concurrently together during the process. (I-130, I-485, I-765 and I-131). Total filing fee is $1490 broken down as such $420 for I-130 and $1070 for I-485 ($985 + $85 biometric fee). I-765/I-131 fees are waived when filed concurrently. She shouldn't leave the U.S. until she gets her Advance parole travel document. Follow this link for a complete guide http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide2

Hi Starkilla09,

Thank you so much.. Do you think that she will have problem because she went to Mexico and came back, they were already married.

Absolutely not, being married doesn't mean you can't move in and out of the U.S. If there was any problem with her travel and Intent, CBP wouldn't have allowed her entry. She should be fine.
