Yes it is better to wait until u get the citizen in your hand ...because u have to send a copy of it ...thats what i did ...it will only take two mths for her to get the green card!!!

F,
You don't need a lawyer, this is the most simple process of immigration you will ever be involved in. Don't be overwhelmed at all, you need to complete all of this forms:
Wife, I-485, I-693 (medical form) G-325A (one for you and one for wife).
Do I mail all these froms at the same time or just I-485 first. Finger print and medical exam come later. Do I still have to send all of them regardless?
It was an amnesty from back in 1982 I think
I think it was 1986.
