We got married in 2021 on the K1 visa and now we want to file for the adjustment of status(I-485) ,I-765 , and I-131 but the problem is he worked and he’s the head of household. Also we filed our tax married-jointly this year. Will it affect the filing process? Do we need an attorney?

Okay thanks and I want to know since he's still working will it affect the process?

I guess you are concerned about this because he is the beneficiary?

 

Regarding filing jointly, that's the right thing to do.

 

And I'm curious about why are you filing so late if you married in 2021.

Why have you waited so long to do the AOS??   Do you realize he’s out of status?

Yes iam concerned because he’s the beneficiary and because I was unemployed and was pregnant at the time

Even though he was not authorized to work, it will be forgiven, so you should not worry that much - the officer might tell him off for doing so-.

 

File as soon as possible and remember that he will need to go through the medical again as the one from the K1 expired long ago.

Forgot to say that if you read all the guides and follow instructions properly you won't need an attorney. 

Okay thanks
