Wife was denied via form I-485

[FordRacer2007 1]

We're a little lost and confused now. Just to give you a really quick overview of where we're at: She was able to travel to the US from Guatemala with the K1 Visa. We got married within the 90 days in 2022 but we just filed form I-485 back in March of 2023. We just received the letter saying we were denied because we failed to provide my (the sponsor) tax information for the year. The worrying part is that at the end of the 3-page letter, it says "The evidence of record shows that, when you filed your application, you were present in the United States contrary to law" and then it proceeds to say that she must leave within 33 days of the date of the letter.

 

I have scanned and redacted personal information from the 3-page letter that they sent me and I have attached it here. Please someone help me understand what is going on and what we need to do. Thank you!

Once the 90 days is up, a K1 is out of status unless they've married and filed AOS.

So essentially, she was out of status all that time and you just didn't get caught. Now you have. 

To remedy, you'll have to refile AOS asap so she has status pending AOS.
