That’s fair and thank you for your views, was more so just the possibility of being deported however that could happen. 

 

Those 3 things you mentioned aren’t an issue for me it’s mainly the risk from overstaying.

 

so it’s forgiven when married? I read in an earlier reply it’s only forgiven once filled for the AOS?

It’s not forgiven when married.   As the Cat said, marriage itself confers no immigration status.   You have to properly file the forms if you want to stay in the U.S. legally.

As long as you did not lie to the border agent about your plans when you arrived, you should be okay.

was planned to stay for 3 weeks vacation with my long distance gf, one thing led to the other and here we are.

 

I see people doing AOS sending in months worth of joint accounts, bills, insurance etc because of this being an unplanned thing we don’t have any of that yet, hence why i’m wondering if waiting past my 90 days would be worth doing.

File ASAP, don't overstay waiting to accumulate evidence.  USCIS doesn't expect you to have a bunch of evidence of living together if you just got married.  Send whatever evidence you have of your long distance relationship.

 

When we applied for AOS, we had like one joint bank statement, and one water bill in both our names.

 

You can also immediately be added to her credit cards as an authorized user--that's quick easy evidence.

Any examples of the evidence you’d send for long distance relationship? I have pictures i will date of the other time I visited last year, but is it just chat logs etc?

 

We plan on setting up a joint check in soon, we also currently live with her parents so it’s not like she even has any bills to pay for house wise at the moment either.
