Hello,
Im getting married in Feb to a US citizen.I am currently on H1b visa.I am planning on applying for GC myself.I have done research on this forum.
I wanted to make sure if these are the forums I need to fill in and send out.
I-130
I-864
I-485
I-765
G-325
I-131
Also do I send them all to the same address or does the work permit and i-485 go to a different location.

Thank you

Thank you replying.Those are very helpful links.
I have a couple more questions
Do I have to apply for GC after my last name is changed in my SSN
Do I have to change my name in my passport and H1B petition and go for stamping again?
 
If you have legally changed your name with your marriage, you can file your petition with your new married name, you don't need to wait for new SSN or passport change. :)
 
Advance Payroll Form

I have H1b visa and have stamping valid until mid of next year.Do I still need to file for I-131 with my Green application (i-485 and I-130).or can I travel with my H1b stamping if needed?
 
Questions on I-693 and I-864

I have couple of more questions..
1.Do I have to do the medical exam form I-693 when I am sending my I-130 and I-485 package? or should I wait for USCIS to tell me when/where to get it done.

2.Does my husband have to file the I-864 form for me even though I am working 40 hours

The I-130 needs to be signed by your spouse, not you.

Working 40 hours is not what matters. What matters is having enough income to be higher than 25% of the poverty line, regardless of the number of hours worked.

You can travel with the H1B stamp if you are still with the same employer and have not worked for any other employers (i.e. no side jobs). But there is no additional fee to apply for the I-131, so why not apply for it? If you lose your job, your H1B won't be valid anymore, so you would need the I-131 to travel.

Yours is a complicated situation that is different from the one at the beginning of this thread. Start your own thread.
 
Question on Birth Certificate

In I-485 it asks for "Copy of Birth Certificate".Is it sufficient to provide a xerox copy of my birth certificate from India or do I have to get it from the municipal corporation in India?

Also for I-130 my husbands Birth Certificate is it enough to provide a xerox copy of his birth certificate or does it have to be from the registrar?


Thank you!
 
Alien Registration # and Opt EAD

Thank you for your response!
I have couple more questions
1.Do I have a alien registration #.I am on H1b and on all my documents I couldn't find a alien registration #.

2.On I-765 it asks if I have applied for EAD before.I applied for OPT on F1 does that count?
