I-485 question

[supG 0]

hello all,

any help is appreciated............ my question is;

On the I-485 form, part 2 "application type", I am not sure which box to check? My wife just arrived here on a K 3 visa. I think it is (a), but not sure as the example form was for a K1 filer. Oh, one more question. a while ago i recieved a 485 or 864 AOS fee notice, but I remember reading not to send payment until after the 129F process was complete and could wait for the AOS process? Is that still correct? BTW, just got a PC so will attempt to put a timeline up soon. Thanks for your help, dave and diep

I'm not sure I understand your question about fees, but this is how it works:

-You've already filed for and obtained a K-3 visa, and your spouse is here, so that's over with.

-You now need to apply for AOS, which costs $1010. Fill out the forms, then enclose a check for that amount with your application. That's it!

Don't forget to apply for EAD (I-765) at the same time if your wife would like to work (or get a SSN or driver's license) before she gets her green card.

Good question. Yes in the example form, c) is checked, for K1 visa applicants. I hope someone who is applying for AOS with a K3 will answer your question.

Form I-485, Part 2 Application type

a) an immigrant petition giving me an immediately available immigrant visa number has been approved.

c) I entered as a K-1 Fiance of a United States citizen...

We checked "a", and included a copy of the I-130 approval notice.

The fee that you were sent before would of been paid had you decided to not do the AOS here but continue with CR/IR processing. Fees now $1010 which includes EAD and AP.

i am wondering about the same question - part 2 on the 485. we're applying to adjust status and sending all the forms in at once, so do i still check (a) and include a copy of the 130?

The OP was specifically asking about adjusting from a K-3. Difficult to answer your question without more information. How did you enter the US? What's your status?
