Filled out the forms - Have a few questions

[Fennik 4]

Hi All - This community has been helpful in the past and I am hoping I can get a few more answers!! Please see below!

 

 

Thanks for all the help - we wrapped up the forms and have our "final" set of questions. Please see below, and again I really do appreciate the help.

 

 

Form I-765

 

Q. Page 3, Q26 - Student and Exchange Visitor Information System Number (if any)

She has a number from when she was an exchange student, but this number is no longer relevant, it was 6 or 7 years. Gut feeling is to add this number, but is that what they are looking for?

 

Q. N/A in all fields or just top field of each section not being used? We are typing so putting in all fields is not difficult

 

This form was really easy to fill out, hope that's how it is supposed to feel!

 

Form I-131

 

Q. We have a Chinese wedding planned for October and will be filing this before that date. According to this document if she files for this and leaves then she has "abandoned" the application. Should we still file this?

Q. We do not have any other planned outings, but there is a lot of information about how often and when we will be traveling for this, other than the already planned wedding we couldn't answer this information?

 

Are we able to file this one after we get back, even if everything else is mailed in by then?

 

Form I-864

 

Q. Page 4, Part 5 Q1-8 - Sponsor's Household Size

For this, we believe the correct number is 2 (her and myself). Box 1 (Number entered in part 3 item 29) is 1 and then Box 2 'Yourself' is 1. Does this sound correct?

 

Form I-130A

 

Q. Page 3 Part 3 Employment outside of America

She has never had employment outside of the US. It says if there is none to put additional information. Is it okay to put "Never worked outside of the U.S."?

 

Form I-130

 

Q. Page 6 Part 4 Q 21.a Names of Beneficiary's spouses

I am her first and only spouse, so I assume I simply put my information here. What do I put for Date Marriage Ended?

 

Q. Page 6 part 4 Q25.a Information About Beneficiary's Family

Do I put my information there again? Given it mentions spouse? Do we put her parents and brother? We have no kids

 

Q. Page 7 Part 4 Q48 Travel Document Number

She does not have a travel document that I am aware of, is this form I-131?

 

Q. Page 8 Part 4 Q61.a USCIS office

Are we able to choose the office, or is there a specific office based on location?

 

Q. Do I need to put anything on the additional info page if I am not using it?

 

Form I-485

 

Q. Page 4 Part 2 Q 3 Information About your Immigration Category

I assume we don't have this number, unless they want the old one from her H1-B

 

Q. Page 9 Part 8 Q1 General Eligibility and Inadmissibility Grounds

When it asks about organizations, what level is it talking about? She was part of clubs/organizations in school and professionally though her work here, do we list all of those?

 

 

My only other questions are:

 

1. N/A in just top box of section or every box? This is for all forms
2. This seemed a little easy, am I missing anything specifically related to the forms?
3. Other than these forms I plan to provide the stuff from the list below, is there anything I am missing?
   1. IRS Transcript last 3 years
   2. Table of Contents
   3. Cover Sheet
   4. Copy of Birth Certificate
   5. Copies of our passport pictures
   6. Copy of our lease that proves we live together
   7. Copy of our join financial accounts
4. In general, is there anything I am not seeing or missing?

 

 

Thanks for all and any help!

 

Thanks!!

If you are leaving in October why are you doing adjustment of status,  there is no way you will get advance parole before then.  Her application will be abandoned and you will be out all your fees for the i485

Yeah I didn't get that part either.

Just to backtrack a bit...she's currently inside the US now yes? (I'm assuming on a tourist/student visa?)

You can't file for AOS before you're legally married, if she is adjusting status while inside the US.

Sorry for all the confusion, details below.

 

Were already legally married, she has been in the US legally for the last 6 years. She has a current H1B and is allowed to leave and enter. She has a current re-entry stamp and therefore doesn’t need to go through US consulate/embassy to come back (that’s once a year) 

 

hope this helps! I will try to update my original post with this info.

Please see my response above. Does this still apply? Should we hold off until we’re back to apply?

Already legally married in the US. The China wedding is for a ceremony there.
