Me and my husband been married for over two years now (04/10/2017 was our 2nd anniversary), we waited over a year to file for Adjustment of Status since we didn't have any travel plans and I already had EAD and SS# from my previous action for Consideration of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. So my EAD is not for new card technically but, for renewal. The reason for delay to apply for Adjustment of Status was to show that we legitimately are in love and are serious about our relationship, since my husband is US Citizen and he is Puerto Rican and I am Polish white girl, we were afraid that USCIS might look at as "Green Card Married" only however, I fear they might look at it like it is.

I am Polish as well!! And I married a US born citizen who comes from a Mexican family. I too have an EAD and SS# through DACA. We waited about two months to file everything and I am worried about giving enough proof that we are married because we love each other and the GC is just an added benefit. We got married faster than expected because his parents told him to and he figured that since we will eventually get married that doing it sooner won't hurt.Originally posted by Agata T.

Ha!! What a relief that I am not alone in this situation lol We got married rather quickly too after about 6 months of dating but we knew each other before that for over a year.Originally posted by Walbrzyszanka21 View PostI am Polish as well!!

Well I knew my husband while in college. He was actually the first person I saw at the orientation: we were both lost as to where it was taking place. So I have known him for almost 3 years. We dated for less than one year and we got married.Originally posted by Agata T. View PostHa!!

Keep in mind everybody, that AOS based on marriage is always similar to this.
If you are in a serious relationship and got married because you love each other you really shouldn't fear anything.
Just make sure you bring documents to support your statement, but if you live together and are married and in love, you will have all of those anyway. They are not asking for anything special that you wouldn't have anyway when you are married.

My question, for the interview is it ok to bring my tablet/cell phones with all the pictures (from wedding, to our trips and other outings) or we have to print them ??Originally posted by absolutegame View PostKeep in mind everybody, that AOS based on marriage is always similar to this.

At our interview the IO asked to keep some of the photos for the file‚ so I would recommend taking hard copies and not digital ones. I'm also not too sure on what the policy might be about you using a tablet in the interview room.Originally posted by Agata T. View PostI know, every day drags lol

We currently live with his parents so maybe we can get an official letter type and notarized that states that we live together. We have a checking joint account, joint credit cards, auto insurance, cell phones, membership to Museum of Science and Industry, photos, trips, We haven't done taxes together since we got married after tax season. We both get medical insurance from our employers but might need to look into making one of us the beneficiary. The HR at my work is not very helpful -__- Like I asked her what should I fill out and change and she said that I do not need to fill out anything. I am like well I am not so sure about that like what will happen next year when we do taxes jointly?Originally posted by absolutegame View PostKeep in mind everybody, that AOS based on marriage is always similar to this.

Not unless your husband does not like photos taken of him *rolls eyes*Originally posted by absolutegame View PostYeah our lawyer also suggested that we should bring a couple of pages (15-20) with photos & captions (wedding, friends, family, trips,...) so that they can keep it. This should really be easy for every married couple.Forms sent 6/2

I need that selfie stickOriginally posted by Agata T. View PostIn our case its me who doesn't like taking pictures but, if we do then its all digital on the phone and then posted on social media.

That is my husband, who doesn't like to take pictures. Before we submit the application, if I asked him to take picture together, he always asked, "Why" and had eyes rolled. Now I ask him to take picture together wherever we go, he asks, "why", I said,"it is for interview", he will come to stand by me and without eyes rolling.Originally posted by Agata T.
