How long does one have after entering on a K1 to adjust? I have a friend who entered and got married within the 90 days but they never adjusted the status. She has now been here for a year at the end of this month! Can she still adjust?

I did search but nowhere did I see where someone tried to file an AOS one year after the I-94 expired on the K1. Seems to be a novel topic.

There are threads all over VJ on this topic. Basically, you have to be married within 90 days and then it says to "promptly" file AOS. Your friend can still file. She will have been out of status, but that's okay. It is not a reason to be denied a green card when you are married to a US citizen.

Yes, there are threads. But, I have not seen a situation where one is married within the 90 days and does not adjust thus being out of status for over 180 days. I would think a bar would be imposed for being out of status.

Hello Skillz, You ask a question and you have had that question answered by 3 people. Yes she can still file. No there is no bar against filing . I have seen people go for a few years before filing. Is that smart ? No it is not. However there is no time limit in filing and no bar against the person if they take a long time to do it. Remember this the USCIS is a service that we all pay for . They provide a service that we need and they are paid to do. The filling fees do change, however the service does not.. I hope this helps..Cheers Patrick
