got 485 approval, now called for fingerprinting, how to marry indian citizen now?

[takeiteasy100]

Hi All,
My company gave me an H1-B visa and had filed I140 and 485 together sometime back. I got 140 appoved in March 2005 and I got approval on 485 (i.e approval for GC). Now they have called me for fingerprinting which I have to get done in 84 days.

Now my questions are:
1. What visa status am I now on H1-B or GC?
1 Can I marry my g/f in India b4 i go for fingerpriting?
2. or get her here on F1 visa and marry her in US, then include her on my GC (which paper work/documents have to be filed ?)

3. Can the date of fingerprinting be extended by filing some form?

After this I can go get the finger printing done - is that possible?

someone reply ASAP.
thanks in advance

Hi All,
My company gave me an H1-B visa and had filed I140 and 485 together sometime back. I got 140 appoved in March 2005 and I got approval on 485 (i.e approval for GC). Now they have called me for fingerprinting which I have to get done in 84 days.

Now my questions are:
1. What visa status am I now on H1-B or GC? If your Green Card is approved then your H-1B is now void. You are a permanent resident.

1 Can I marry my g/f in India b4 i go for fingerpriting?

2. or get her here on F1 visa and marry her in US, then include her on my GC (which paper work/documents have to be filed ?) You cannot include her on your paperwork now. You are now approved. You should have married and had that done before approval. It is much easier that way.

3. Can the date of fingerprinting be extended by filing some form?
There is no need to extend the fingerprinting. This is done to make the actual Green Card. (I am assuming after you got your approval they told you to appear for Biometrics.) The sooner the better for you. This has no bearing on bringing your girlfriend here.

After this I can go get the finger printing done - is that possible?
