AP is applied for using form I-131, which is submitted as part of your AOS package after marriage. It takes about 60 days to get AP in hand. Lately, the AOS interview is coming up even before the EAD or AP documents get processed!
If you are lucky enough to get your green card before your AP document, then you no longer need AP. Your green card allows you to return to the USA.
many thanks and looking forward to getting to know you all!

Re: hello
thank you for your quick reply - i must check what all the terms mean
AOS - adjustment of status and AP - is that the approval?
so just to clarify i apply for an AOS straight after marriage - and this takes approx 60 days to come thro and this is my travel and work permit??
i only want to visit the uk for a week or so every couple of months - once i have the travel permit is it ok to do so ---?

Re: hello
And Arizona. We got our marriage license at 3:00 pm and were married at 5:00 pm the same day.
But yes, it's State-specific.

Re: hello
thanks for the info - I was just curious as i did read somewhere that you had to register first before marriage and be in the country and it can take up to a month to get the licence!!! it was the wrong info tho
I want to arrive - and get married the same week!! I have been told that each state has different laws

Then we can have a reasonable discussion.. this is getting crazy!

Re: hello
Some places it's the county which issues it, others are different.
And, this would be a really obvious thing for your US partner to look into. Since they presumably live where you want to marry.

In fact, save yourself some trouble.. just google "marriage license" + cityname and you should get it.
