AOS package double check

[ineedadisplayname 496]

Hi,

 

Could somebody quickly double check if I thought about everything for the AOS? How you organized them? Separately bound them together and put it in the same envelope? Do I need something else? Did I miss anything?

 

Thanks

Do you have your name added on the lease or utility bills? If yes, kindly include it.

 

Good luck.

No. I don't have my name on any utility bills or lease.... Maybe down the line it will be added before the interview.... Or joint bank account, but still until I am not able to work a joint bank account would prove anything?

A couple things I caught. Note, I didn't do an AOS from a K-1 visa though, so not sure what additional documents are needed there.

• Assuming you are also submitting I-130? If not, you need as supporting documents which you did not include in your list
  • Husbands' birth certificate
  • Husband's tax returns (at least one year, up to three years) and ideally last 6 months of pay stubs for his I-864
  • Evidence of bona fide marriage (e.g., photos, joint bank accounts, joint lease, etc.)
• You only need one G-1145, attached to the I-130
• Do you have any past EAD cards? If so, need front and back photocopies of all
• Don't need marriage license with I-131
• Include translation of birth certificate if not in English (seeing you're from Romania)

They ask for all this stuff, but I just came back from my interview and they didn't ask for anything, but some joint assets. The lady understood that since I am not working yet, I can't be on everything, but we had joint bank, credit card, health insurance and car insurance. That is all she took, didn't even look at anything else we took with us.

 

Not sure if it is just up to the interviewer or not ... ?

Hi Troika,

Good luck on your interview.  What's your PD?

PD for AOS ? ... just looked at it and it doesn't show anything, just has received date of January 30, 2018. The lady said she sees no reason not to approve, however, I am yet to receive confirmation of that. We just had a chat about the application form, she asked for any joint liabilities/assets we might have, made a few notes on them and put them in my file and that was it. didn't look at our birth certificates, marriage certificate or anything else.

Thank you. Will remove all the extra docs.

 

I've put the tax returns with the Affidavit of support. 3 years

We used full copy of passport instead of birth certificate. It worked for the K1.....

About evidence... Hope we don't get any RFE.... But for now the marriage is kinda new, by the time of the interview we will have more evidence  (naturally) of bona fide marriage....

No previous EAD cards...

My birth certificate has Romanian, French and English on it, so no translation, I hope it will be ok without an extra translation

While adjusting from a K-1, is the I-130 required? It's not mentioned in the guide. Does one need to attach documents like the marriage certificate, I-94 etc to each form or just one copy in the entire package?

I-130 is not required since you are on a K-1 visa. You had the I-129F instead of I-130.

I made 3 separate "packages" for each form and it's supporting documents and sent them all in together, so yeah there are stuff which are duplicate for each form....

How many forms you are sending in?

Each form asks for two identical pictures.

If you are filing for I-485, I-131 and I-765 then you will need total of SIX (6) passport style photographs.
