AOS Questions - K1 Visa Holder

[soprano82 5]

Hello all, we are hoping to get our AOS application submitted to USCIS tomorrow, but we had a few last minute questions that we wanted to see if anyone could answer for us. My wife was a K1 holder, for reference.

 

1. For the i-693, I understand that we are to submit only the first page (information about you section completed only) and a copy of her DS-3025 that she received at the time she completed her medical exam overseas. We are concerned if there will be any problems with submitting the form unsealed? She was only provided unsealed copies of the forms at the time of the examination she had overseas. We are planning on turning in the first page of the i-693 and the copy of the DS-3025 from her overseas medical that has the seal of the hospital on it with the AOS. Again what we have is unsealed. Is that acceptable?

 

2. We have been told that it is acceptable to specify TBD or unknown for the date of travel and duration, where that is asked on the form, but it is unclear how we address the following section under "Complete Only if Applying for Advanced Parole":

 

On a separate sheet of paper, explain how you qualify for an Advanced Parole Document. and what circumstances warrant issuance of advanced parole. Include copies of any documents you wish considered.

 

We have no idea what we should do about that question. We'd only be going back to visit her family and friends. Is it better to submit the form immediately with Unknown/TBD or wait to submit it once you know the dates and times? It is my understanding that the advanced parole document will still be free of charge so long as she has an AOS pending. It should be a multi-use advanced parole document as well correct?

 

3. On the i-485 form itself, we are unsure how we should answer this question:

 

Have you ever been a member of, involved in, or in any way associated with any organization, association, fund, foundation, party, club, society, or similar group in the United States or in any other location in the world including military service?

 

She was a performing member of an American drum and bugle corps for 2 summers in the US. Does that count as a yes to this question? The question is so vague, so we aren't sure whether that qualifies as a yes to the question.
