He is saying that the I-485 would be filed on the basis of marriage..with no mention of pending divorce. His wife has apparently agreed to remain married until the AOS is granted.

and I would suspect put your maiden name under "other names used"

Incorrect. Except for the Tax returns. You can submit only the most recent year, but you can also choose to submit the last three years by checking the appropriate box on the form. If you were applying to gain status in Canada you would need to send all of those other supporting documents...

The I-130 requires 1 photo of each of you. The I-485 requires 2 photos of the I-485 beneficiary only. The I-765 (EAD) requires two photos of the beneficiary only. The I-131 requires 2 photos of the beneficiary only. The beneficiary needs 7 photos and you need 1. The instructions...

The instructions for the I-130 specifically state a "COPY OF MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE" Not the original. Take original documents to interview to support the copies. Original documents can be lost in the system and then you delay the process by needing to acquire certified copies to replace them.

I can't be much help I think. My case was filing for my wife. Filed the I-130, I-485, I-131, EAD and affidavit of support together. But she was here on a B1/B2.

Tell what? Not very much information there. The knowledgeable people on thisboard might be able to help if you could be more specific.

"you must file it during the 90 days immediately before the second anniversary of the date you were accorded conditional resident status" answers it for me. It really has nothing to do with two years of marriage...

First of all..I very diligently qualified what I said by acknowledging that i did not know for certain. I did not dispense advice. I also took the time to find the online instructions and post the link to refer him to for correct information.And the only recommendation I made was for him to...

If you enter on a B2 and get married that week...red flag. My wife entered on a B2, with no intent other than to return to her home country with her daughters when the school year finished. I ended up asking her to marry me (we had known each other for 2 years) while she was in the U.S...

Yes, I just found that. My bad. And the form does say he can request to not file jointly. The 90 day thing begs the question,,for my reference....can you file after your second year of marriage, or do you have to wait until 90 days before the second anniversary of your PR?

see if this link works. it is the instructions for the I-751. It mentions that you can file if your marriage, entered into in good faith, ended in divorce. [url]http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/I-751.pdf[/url and you are right. It is within 90 days of your PR. I was wrong. My bad. And...

I would say that is not correct. Others may know better. I was pretty certain the instructions, as I recall, specifically say within 90 days of being married for two years. But I am far from an expert, so I could be wrong. Someone here will know the correct answer.

The I-751 was supposed to be filed within 90 days of the second anniversary of your being married. Was it? And did the marriage breakup after 2 years? Or before? But for me, the issue is whether you failed to file the I-751 when you were supposed to.

most lawyers will work out payment arrangements. for example..half up front to do the preparation, and then payments for the balance over three months when the package is ready to submit. If you pay only for the preparation, and then need him later, he might move to an hourly fee which could...

There is no need to file seperately...but if you look at the form it asks for information about spouse and children. If that information was not provided, could be a problem. That was why I suggested seeing a copy of the original I-130 form that was filed.

Her being in the military lowers the income requirements. And if she was in the military whenm youmarried, there is little doubt in my mind that some financial help could have been provided to assist in paying for the filings. That might still be the case. I would think at this point, a good...

Of course filing the I-485 under the false pretense that you are not planning divorce...not particularly legal I would think. You have been married for 6 years, so the 2 year restriction would not apply and, I assume, thus not require a second interview at that time. And it will take months...

Does your wife work? Has she worked since your arrival? What kind of work? I'm just curious how you have been suppoorting yourselves for 6 years if you have not done anything but work the "occasional cash job"..

sounds like you did a good job of providing intitial evidence. just back it up with continued proof of those items and I cannot imagine you will have a problem.
