Can I file I-130 without hiring an attorney?
Can I file I-130 for my spouse my self without attorney representation? my wife is abroad and only I-130 can be filled here in US. The rest of the process can only continue in US embassy abroad after I-140 approval. Besides, the online I-130 filling process on USCIS website seem to be very detailed and easy-to-follow. while I understand that the approval of I-130 is a long wait, do you think it is worth paying for attorney over 3 thousand dollars? what is your take on this?

After one year waiting my mom and dad finally got approved! For those who are waiting, don’t lose hope. The wait was long but it will all be worth it in the end!

I-130 Approved but I-485 reads: Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS
Hello Everyone,
I have a question please,
My I-130 was approved!
But on the same day my I-485 status changed to : We have cancelled the request for additional evidence for your Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status.
and then my I-485 status changed to: Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS
Now my I-485 status is: Case Is Being Actively Reviewed By USCIS and its been around 5 days,
What to expect next?
Did anyone go through the same? Does anyone know what's next ?
Thank you all
Goodluck everyone!

Can I apply for OPT while pending I-765 based on I-485?
Hi, I applied for a work permit through a marriage-based green card on November 28th, 2022, and I just now realized that it might take 15 months to get approved (compared to the 4-6 months I initially thought).
I am graduating in May and am interviewing for jobs right now. I am terrified of staying off I-20 status, and not being able to work (+ not being able to drive). Can I apply for an OPT (4-week estimated wait time) while I have a pending I-765 based on marriage?
I read somewhere that it could give confusing/opposing intent as one is an immigrant while the other is a non-immigrant, but I also read that the worst case would be the denial of OPT but no effect on the green card process whatsoever. Some have even said they have done so successfully. Your thoughts???
Thank you!!!! I am so stressed right now...

Is anyone in the same situation?
My I-130 case went from “YOUR CASE IS TAKING LONGER THAN EXPECTED TO PROCESS. YOU DO NOT NEED TO TAKE ANY ACTION AT THIS TIME.“ to “Estimated time until case decision” three weeks. Has anyone had the same situation lately?
I'll turn two years of marriage by July 8th.
Will it be enough time to get a 10-year card instead of a 2-year card?
