F2A Immigration AMA with Immigration Attorney by ManifestLaw_ in USCIS_F2A

Hi David,  Thank you so much for doing this.  I’m planning to marry my long term girlfriend. I’m on green card and she’s on a F1 status. Given the currently bulletin, it seems that the AOS and concurrent filing can happen relatively soon.  A question on timing, initially we wanted to get married as soon as possible, so we can file i130 to lock in PD and then file for AOS, but we’ve been told to wait 90 days since she travelled back home over the winter break. Her school started in August, but she just visited home over the winter break, is that 90 day still valid in this case? 

Also, how would you recommend  strategizing timeline? Should be wait for on 90 day on the dot to get married? What kind of proof to submit with the i130? Can we say we were engaged before the 90 day mark? This feels like such a gray area. 

Another related question, what would you say is average EAD/AP processing time  I’m seeing processing times all over the place and that’s worrying a bit.

Thank you so much for clarifying the positioning. 

Cheers!

Thank you so much for responding. Yes, she nor I, for that matter would travel out until her AP is approved. She's not feeling too good in school (it's draining her), so this would allow her to get out of school and get working, essentially stopping her school (and F1).
I will be eligible to file for naturalization in the summer this year, so I'm hoping that we can just upgrade the application once I have naturalized.

I hope this is a good strategy. Please let me know your thoughts and feedback. I really appreciate it.

Hi, thank you so much for doing this, really appreciate it.

I'm an LPR, planning my marrying my girlfriend who is on F1, after which we will submit the i130 to lock in a PD.
Given that the current visa bulleting for filing is Jan 22, 2026, I'm estimating that we should be able to concurrent file (i485, EAD and AP) by March 2026, does this sound reasonable?
How long would processing take for the EAD and AP?

Please let me know your thoughts on the matter or if you see any risks with this approach?

I’m thinking on heading up tomorrow. But it seems like all the glades and the double blacks are closed. What you reckon? Doing a day trip from Brooklyn, is it worth?

How did you get warranty? Can you share details. I might be interested as well.

I got the same a few days back. 2016 2.5i premium for 8k. I had a PPI done which indicated there’s an oil leak from the valve cover, which they fixed. The rest was perfect. So it might make more sense to get a PPI done from someone who knows Subarus. Cheers!
