Anyone file a 485 form with just a NOA1 from the I130 petition?

[Dominic 0]

Was the application with the NOA1 successful? An Infopass appointment told me I had to do it with an approved I130 or a brand new I130 petition, that an I130 NOA1 would not be enough.

Also, do you have to do the biometrics after sending in the I485? The USCIS officer said I could submit the Biometrics and an Employment Authorization I765 with my I485 application. HE told me I could check the USCIS website for the approved doctors.

I believe for an AOS for my wife that I would check box "a" and not "b" in part 2 on the 485 form?

Lastly, Do I submit a separate one for my stepchild or do I do them all on one form?

Thanks for your help.

Can you give us a little more background on your case. Is this from a tourist visa or another visa?

You do have to do biometrics, everyone does.

Checking the USCIS website for approved doctors will be handy if you need the I-693 and/or vacciantion supplement. This is an absolute necessary document that most of us have either done overseas already or just need the supplement updated here in the US.

Im not sure on your last 2 questions.

I don't know where your initial I-130 was filed, but I know of someone who filed the I-130 (not knowing they were supposed to file the I-485 at the same time) and then filed their AOS application, including the I-130 NOA (1-130 was pending) and they didnt have any problems. i don't think you should have to file a new I-130 if there is one already pending.

You will get an appointment for biometrics after you send in your I-485. You don't really do it on your own and it's not something you send into USICS. You need to include biometric fees as noted on the fee schedule with the I-485 application. You can sent in an I -765 with the AOS application.

Your relative needs to see a civil surgeon for a medical. Here is the link: https://egov.uscis.gov/crisgwi/go?action=of...office_type=CIV Shop around. I managed to get mine done for $200.00 and my son's for $65.00.

Yes, your wife would check off "A".

You need to submit a seperate application for your step child.

Hope this helps.

USCIS really has some rare bozos handling the Infopass...

YES, you definitely can send an I-130 NOA with your I-485, you do not need to send a brand new I-130.

We filed for a K3 but for medical reasons, my family cannot return to Canada for at least a few months, and USCIS advised us to file for an AOS.

Thanks for your help.

What's the difference with the biometrics and the Civil Surgeon? Can't I send in I-693, Medical Examination of Aliens Seeking Adjustment of Status with the I485 application, wouldn't that suffice both the Civil Surgeon and biometrics?

Do I send in a completely separate package for my step-child, or could I include all supporting documentation in one big package?

Muchas Gracias

Biometrics is when an alien goes to an Application Support Center and has his/her fingerprints and picture taken. It has nothing to do with the medical exam.

You could send one big package with the same stack of evidence, just fill out a separate application for the child.

Medical exam record is to be submitted as one of the supporting documents on your I-485 applications. The Biometrics appointment will be scheduled after you submit your I-485 petition.

See your other thread in the K3 forum (last post). Kez filed the I-485 with the I-130.

There is no issue with filling a NOA for the I-130 along with your AOS packet..... make sure you get the medical done by a civil surgeon that is on the approved list... USCIS.gov has the list.... include the application for the child and a copy of all supporting evidence for both the mother and child...
