Hello everyone,

 

I have some questions, my situation is this: I came to United States in a k1 Visa on december 15, we got married on january 21, we are trying to send the paperwork for the Adjusment of status, but we don't have a paper that prof that I have never had credit in united states (we need it for the new form I-944 "Declaration of self-suffiency");  my I-94 "Travel records" says that I can stay until march 13, do we need to send the adjusment of status paper before march 13?

What is better:

1) Send the paperwork without the credit letter before march 13; or

2) Wait for the letter and send the documents after march 13?

 

I would appreciate your comments, thank you!

You're in the clear. As long as you married within those 90 days it won't affect your eligibility to adjust status. Keep in mind however that between March 13 and the moment USCIS receives your AOS packet you're not in a legal status and can be removed by immigration authorities if you bump into them. 

 

Sending the packet without all the required documents risks that you're denied outright (they don't have to give you the chance to add to the packet or correct it) so I wouldn't do that either if I were you.  

 

In short I'd advise to wait until you've got the letters saying you don't have a credit reports with the credit agencies and then send everything in ASAP.
