Does anyone know how to edit the title of the article in the wiki? I can't figure it out, but it would be good to note that those instructions are for K-1s only.

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

you can't....create a new page with the right title and then copy paste the stuff in this to it and get Sue to delete this entry.

How about just putting in a note at the top saying "This is an AOS guide for K1 visa applicants"

or something to that effect, in bold/italic.

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

Actually I don't believe the header has to be changed as it is AOS but what needs to be done is that a short paragraph at the beginning stating that this is AOS for K-1 visaholders after marriage. And that to AOS from any other type of visa entry after marriage, Form I-130 must be included with the I-485 and accompanying documents sorted below.

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

but what about those through employment?

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

Employment visaholders still need to include an I-130. The only exemptions are K-3's because they already have an I-130 pending and/or approved and the K-1.

The company lawyer should be guiding them. :)

I-140.

I-130 is the petition for an Immediate Relative.

That's what we were talking about ... adjusting based on marriage to a USC not AOS based on sponsorship of an employer.

Bob's Q was vague. :)

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

company lawyer is working for the company not the recipient, who may want to under stand the whole process though, so they can question and prod the company lawyers about any delaying tactics...

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

it was, but this wiki entry doesn't differentiate between AOS through marriage or employment, it's fairly obvious that it's K1 biased, but if it is about AOS in general it should state the differences for those going through it from other reasons.

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

Hence my suggestion of a title change in the first place? :blink:

Re: A New Wiki Addition ... Please Read
 

Why should it? It is part of the marriage-based visa forum's wiki.

Those who utilize the US Immigration Visa forum are the ones who should be responsible for doing up a wiki inclusion for adjustment based on employment as it is much different in many aspects. For one is there is no need for an I-130 or G-325A's from the USC spouse or even that one of the spouses MUST be a USC. It talks about the social security card which again has nothing to do with employment adjustment since they are here on a H-1B or L visa, etc.

Also there are issues with employment based aos and dependents which would not be includeable in an AOS for marriage-based as it would only confuse things.
