randyvalt Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Hello all, Much progress has been made since I last posted here....A month ago, my wife finally got her I765 and card in the mail.Last week, she got her social Security card. On the day she gother social security card, she got a job at H&R Block to be a tax preparer.I got her 3 credit cards (in her name only) to start establishing creditfor her. I checked the status of her I485 and from the timeline, it will not be untilSeptember that she gets her I485 approved. We got married in china,so she is here on a K-3 visa that expires in September. What happens if her K3 visa expires and she doesnt get her I485 approved by september? Is there any other paperwork I need to apply for or worry about? Whenever I depend on the govt, I feel a bit insecure. All comments are welcome! P.S. she didnt know a thing about taxes when she arrived in america atthe end of september, but she learns fast!

Trigg Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I'm speaking for K1--once you apply for AOS- I-465, you needn't worry about K1 visa date. I'm pretty sure K3 is the same. Link to comment
tywy_99 Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 From the Federal Register: 37. According to the INS rule, the alien spouse of a U.S.citizen and a child of that spouse who are already in theUnited States may have the U.S. citizen file an I-130petition on their behalf with INS; the alien spouse andhis/her child may then file with INS for an adjustment ofstatus to LPR. While either of these are pending, thealien spouse and his/her child may remain in the UnitedStates without accruing unlawful presence, and they mayalso obtain work authorization and permission to traveloutside the U.S., and they may continue to do so withoutK3/K4 status or visas.
