K-1/K-2 VISA'S APPROVED IN MONTREAL MAY 2, 2005

K-1/K-2 AOS APPROVED IN ATLANTA MAY 17, 2006

10 year GC Approved - APRIL 16th ,2009 - Peggy and Jonathan's......

Still waiting for our cards...Had to file I-90 as they sent them to the wrong address.

March 9th, 2010, Received GC that has been lost in the mail for 10 months. Still waiting for my son's that is lost as well.

Filed Waiver for my son's 10 year GC and it was approved. He finally received his GC after its been missing for 2 years.

Thanking God this is over for 10 years.

if you are married there will be no overstay the i-94 expires only if you do NOT get married.

Since you said wife of one week that would imply you are married

Thus your I-94 expiration date no longer matters

If you leave before the Ap paperwork is approved which I hear takes a month or 2 then you have to start the whole processes over again.

12/31/07: Sent I-751 packet to Texas, the LONG wait begins once again!

01/03/08: Packed received.

This is incorrect. Being married to a US citizen does NOT confer legal status for an alien inside the US. Being married and filing for adjustment of status does confer legal status.

If being married does confer legal status, there would be no need for marriage based adjustment of status since anyone married to a US citizen has legal status in the US.

It is true that once a person marries within the 90 days K-1 status, that person has fulfilled the requirements of the K-1. However, the 90 days status limitation will apply if that person doesn't file for adjustment of status based on the marriage.

Unless I am mistaken I did not state he had legal status, I said if they were married he would not be overstaying on the I-94.

Once Married you have to file for AOS and if you desire to travel AP, if you are married and leave the country before this then unless I am wrong you will have to start over and it will take much longer

If you are out if status from the time you are married until you file your AOS Paperwork then my baby was out of status for 135 days as we were married in April and filed AOS Very late in August.

Did it affect anything, well Silvia got her "green card" this month 455 days after filing for K-1, if We filed correctly and the day we were married it would have been 290 days.
