I’ve the following questions about my fiancée’s VISA. Right now she’s a student and on F1-Visa.I am planning to marry her in couple of months.
Right now I'm on H1 and filed my AOS.
1) When she comes back to US on F1 after the marriage, Can I amend her in the I-485 with the marriage certificate? If so does she require getting H4 before being amended in 485?
The thing that I do not understand is to apply for AOS; does she need to be on H4? The H4 and AOS are two independent processes or not?
My understanding is that H4 is pretty much like a back up in case if the AOS fails, since she’s moving from F1 ---- AOS.
If AOS is denied by any reason, she can still be on H4 status.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
2) This is one more concern. If she applies for OPT and if I try to amend her in AOS, what’re the complications? Can she be on OPT and AOS at the same time?
What happens to OPT once she’ on AOS?
Since I’m new to GC process, my questions may be basic, I’d be really grateful if somebody advises me what way to go?
Thanks,
KK
