Can someone please let me what are all the procedures of getting green card for spouse... if married during 485 process..In my case I got approved.We want to know what are the ways of getting green card for my husband because we just got married ...just few months before the approval.
 
you are just fine

You did a great thing legally marrying before approval.

Talk to the lawyer and file follow-to-join application for your spouse. My friend did the same and his wife\'s approval will come through in a few weeks now. It takes 3-4 months for a follow-to-join application to be pproved.

Have fun!
 
thanks..

Thanks. We already talked to the lawyer and he was not 100% sure that
follow-to-join case can get approved.That\'s the reason we posted.
 
Follow-to-join worked after approval

Not inmy case, but in my friend\'s case, because he was legally married before approval.

Could you please post your lawyers comments? I am in the same state waiting to get married. Your comments will help.

Thanks!

The lawyer told us since we married at the very end stage of 485 process, the INS may / may not approve for spouse like 50/50 chance.But I was told in in Sheela Murthy Chat converstation that ifthe primary applicant is married even before one date of approval then there is no problem.
