Any requirement for civil marriage in the US
So, we were married overseas and we have all the photos and official documents (from the government over there) proving the marriage, but we don't have any marriage certificates in the US since we weren't married here. We have some joint documents though (not too much).

I am asking if we have to have a civil marriage in the US?

Thanks in advance for helpers!

My experience n analysis!
Folks this is my experience from tracking n monitoring my EAD case after biometerics was completed. I am in NY so this is what I did I found thread for NY 2017 in this forum n analyze the cases there paying close attention to the timelines between biometerics n approval dates and this is what I find out n this may varied depending of each situation but most situations I found out it takes between 8-10 weeks without no rfe or rfie generally for EAD cases to be approved. There were some case a few that took up to 12 weeks. Cases with reference took a lot longer time to get approval. Folks this is my analysis from matching my case to other cases in this forum. Also I find lots of useful information from folks postings like when to raise a SR n what to do after a SR was raise. Eg.. Like calling USCIS service representative n requesting to speak to a tier 2 IO all these are tips n advice I used to assist in monitoring my case. Thank you for all the advice n best wishes to all of us on this process.

I-485 Finally Approved - San Jose
Finally got my I-485 approved, after a year and 2 months.

Field Office: San Jose
PD: May 11 2016
Interview: March 24 2017

Was given a letter saying they will take 120 days to make a decision. On the 119th (July 23 2017) day I got an RFE for updated medicals (I-693). Here is the kicker, I submitted new medicals during the interview since I knew my old medicals had expired. I guess they missed it, after "reviewing" my case for 4 months. I was livid.

Made an infopass for Aug 2 2017 and told them the new medicals was submitted during the interview. They checked the file right then and found the medicals. They apologized profusely for their mistake and promised to review the case the same day. New card in production message received on Aug 3 2017.

Could have been better, but its done now. So, all good. For those that are waiting for a long time after the interview, the only thing that helps is infopass. Sometimes they might just ask you to wait, but they do help and look into the case if you show up repeatedly, especially if it is after 120 days post interview.

Need advice
Hi there,
I am an international medical graduate, i have B2 visa and have visited USA twice on that visa, both times i talked to immigration officials at airport and exptented my stay to a year by showing them documents of preparation courses for my USMLE exams.
During my 2nd stay i met another med student and after 6 months we got married, then we searched Internet to apply for AOS, but he is a student just like me and a dependent, we could not find a joint sponsor. So our application got denied. We decided to reapply after some time when he will start working.
I still have one year on my B2 visa. My question is can i still use my visitors visa to go back for my interviews and exams. Is there a chance of denied entry to US because of a denied AOS application. I didn’t overstayed any of my visits. My I-94 was about to expire so i decided to leave US.
Any Guidance will be highly appreciated.
