Hi,

Here is my story.
  • In 2006 my LPR wife filed I-130 for me.
  • It was approved 6 month ago.
  • In 2 weeks I’d be able to submit AOS applications because on 01/19/2010 my wife has Oath Ceremony.
Now. Should I resend I-130 supporting document and evidence such as: family photos, marriage certificates, our kids birth certificates, 325As etc. or a copy of I-130 approval is sufficient?

Since 2006, the time when I-130 was filed, there were no major changes except for a birth of our second son.

Thank you in advance for your help.
 
Once your wife gets her Citizenship. To upgrade I-130, you will just need to send a cover letter (noting the status change of petitioner), a copy of her Naturalization Certificate and a copy of the I-130 receipt notice. Have sent the same in for my spouse.
 
Hi Balyan

Can you please let me know the procedure for upgrading the I-130 that is not approved?

Can i still apply for EAD along with the 485? How long does it take to recieve the EAD?

All you need to for AOS is file I-485 with the usual associated documents (marriage certificate, birth certificate, medical, etc.), and include a copy of the I-130 approval and her naturalization certificate, and they will figure it out. You don't need to submit a separate upgrade request. And don't send family photos. Bring that to the interview.

No special upgrade procedure required if you are filing for AOS. Just include a copy of the I-130 receipt with the I-485. And see my previous post.

Thank you all for your responses. One more thing is bothering me. Do I need to attached my wife's G-325A to I-485, or only mine is required. And also how many copies, 4?

Thank you
 
Should I update approved I-130 and G325A if my wife (petitioner) changed last name by naturalization

Hi,

I'm getting closer and closer every day to send my AOS and questions come up like crazy and here is another one:

Should I update approved I-130 and G325A if my wife (petitioner) changed her last name by by virtue of naturalization?

Thanks,
 
If a G325A was already submitted, send another one with the I-485. If her name change is other than taking your last name, submit the name change order with the I-485 (otherwise, if the name change is just to take your last name, sending a copy the marriage certificate [which you would be doing anyway] should be sufficient). And point out the name change at the interview.
