Hi All, I just have a quick question regarding my wife's AOS application. From what i have gathered the whole process can take up to and over 2 years. Is that right?

Also, what happens if she doesnt get approved before the 2 years expires (the K3 visa she has is only valid for 2 years)? Can she still stay in the country if we have applied? Or what happens?

Thanks :)

Quick history

We met on 1 January 2006 while she was traveling in Hawaii. She came back to Hawaii in April 2006 for 3 weeks. We then continued long distance until June 2006 when I went to Oz and proposed. We then traveled around parts of the US together, then I was deployed to Iraq in August 2006. I came to Oz in February 2007 for my R&R leave for 2 and a half weeks and we got married. I then returned back to Iraq.. I'm due to finish my deployment in July.... NOW I KNOW SHE WILL BE THERE :o)

It is my understanding that once you file your AOS paperwork, the status you obtain is I-485 Status Pending. This means that you are legal to remain in the US pending the result of your application to Adjust Status. Hopefully, it won't take two years :P

Best of luck to you guys.

Claudeth had her conditional green card five months after filing the AOS. We will file for lifting conditions in November.
