I-485 Form Question for USC VWP marriage

[hellohello]

Hi. My wife and I have just married in the USA. She was in the USA on a VWP. I am now in the process of filing the papers for an AOS etc. I'm already stumped. In our situation under Part 2 Application Type, I am not sure if we should check the box a) an immigrant petition etc., or h) Other basis of eligibility etc. or perhaps another category. I am a US Citizen. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Part 2, check option A, you must file both I-130 and I-485... the I-130 is the petition that makes a visa available for her immediately and you are filing both, to the Chicago Lockbox.

Thanks for this, I too had not yet completed this part of the I-485 as was confused as to the Application Type I fell under.

Thanks again
