Adjustment of Status - I-485

I am a U.S. citizen and petitioned for my wife I-130, I-485,I-864, I-765, I-131. We filed in late August 2015 and her green card was approved late January 2016. We got married in June 2015 but have been together for over two years.

Some tips: Include as much information as possible. I included photos of us traveling together, photos of us with her parents, us with my parents, us with friends, affidavits written by friends, utility bills, receipts for joint medical expenses, proof of address, joint bank account, proof of income, federal and state tax returns, W2's, proof of financial resources (bank statement). It's a good idea to organize everything effectively (you can include an outline of what's included in your application at the beginning).

The interview went smoothly. The officer asked us how we first met, she asked me if my job provided a salary. She asked why we decided to get married at this particular time? My response, "I love her!" She then said " you know that but I don't, tell me." I explained a bit more about how close we were and how we did everything together. She asked to see proof of address (lease) and our ID cards, then approved us.

Best of luck to everyone still going through the process.
