Hopefully someone with similar experience can answer:
When applying for an AOS (I-485) Adjustment of Status for US Immigration together with an I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative) on the grounds of a US Citizen being married to an alien currently residing & legally working in the USA on an Blanket L1 Visa I have a couple of questions:
1)Do you submit an I-164 or I-134 regarding Affidavit of Support?
2) When submitting the I-485 AOS & the I-130 Petition do you submit two I-130’s (or one original & one copy), as in one original for the I-130 plus a copy with the I-485?
3)Marriage Cert – One Certified (with the I-485) & one Copy (with the I-130)? Or two Certifieds?
4)Regarding the G-125A (Biographic Information) submission with the basic I-485 (AOS) do you just need the information for the Alien Spouse (4 pages) or for both parties 4 pages x 2 (4x spouse plus 4 x alien)?
5)Regarding the above I’m aware that the G-125A (Biographic Information) submission with the I-130 Petition filed concurrently with the I-485 (AOS) require I-325A forms to be submitted for both the Alien Spouse & USC (US Citizen) .
All above on the basis of a marriage PLUS application submission within the USA.
But, one more question:
Would an AOS application affect the L1 Visa status in any way regarding the employer & the current employee? Or would the AOS applicant be better off holding off the application until return to Ireland & filing via Consulate despite this meaning a separation from spouse & child (born to both alien & USC)?
Also, the fact is that neither party are sure (application success or not), whether or not they wish to permanently reside is the USA or for USC spouse, child & Irish Citizen to return to Ireland after the L1 Blanket status expires, so all of the above would be merely to keep options open as regards the Alien being able to stay with their spouse & child without any long separations. Does the two year rule still apply as regards PRS or can the waiver be applied?
Hope this makes sense!
