USCIS I-485 help.
USCIS Form G325a Biographic Information
Once the couple marries, USCIS MUST be notified in order to change the Fiancee's status from that of a foreigner visiting the U.S. for 90 days, to that of a foreigner now married to a U.S. citizen entitled to remain in the U.S. indefinitely as a Permanent Resident. The form to use is I-485, Adjustment of Status. As soon as possible the I-485 should be completed and submitted to USCIS. When this is approved, her status is officially changed to that of a Conditional Resident. She is given a drivers licence sized id card confirming her permission to remain in the U.S. . This is traditionally called her "Green Card".
Don't plan to leave the U.S. for your honeymoon. While waiting for the "Green Card" it is best that the Fiancee NOT travel outside of the U.S. . After she receives it she can travel freely.
Advanced Parole:
There may come a need for your Fiancee (now your spouse) to leave the U.S. before the "Green Card" arrives. She should notify USCIS via form I-131 Advance Parole. This will allow her to travel, and reenter the U. S. and to obtain her "Green Card." Should she leave without obtaining the Advance Parole before her Conditional Residency is approved, she may lose her eligibility for residence and be required to start the visa petition process all over again, this time applying for s spousal K-3 visa. It is best she waits until the "Green Card" arrives.
Below is a short youtube video that describes how to get your Fiancee Visa
-
The child of a fiancee may receive a derivative K-2 visa from his/her parent’s fiancee petition. You,
the American citizen petitioner, must make sure that you name the child in the I-129F petition. After the
marriage of the child’s parent and the American citizen, the child will need a separate form I-485
Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status. The child may travel with (accompany) the
K-1 parent/fiancee or travel later (follow-to-join) within one year from the date of issuance of the K-1
visa to his/her parent. A separate petition is not required if the children accompany or follow the alien
fiancee within one year from the date of issuance of the K-1 visa. If it is long than one year from the
date of visa issuance, a separate immigrant visa petition is required.
Expert Tip # 8
Send copies of all supporting documents you attached to the I-129F, and I-134 to your Fiancee. She should review these and be intimately conversant with their contents. She should bring all of these documents to her interview at the consulate. For some documents she may be required to present originals, or certified copies of originals, make sure she gets these well in advance of her interview.
