I came US j visa with 2 year home country rule, I just got waiver for 2 year home country rule from uscis. Now, I wanna file AOS.
I am married to US citizen for 4 years, I am out of status since 2000. I wanna apply for AOS, but 2007 me and my wife didnt file taxes. we wanna file late,
Can i send I-864 after the I-485 and I-130 or do I need to file together?
What kind of problems I will have for overstaying and being out of status almost 8 :confused:?
thanks

once you married USC overstay doesn't matter but you should submit for I-94 with AOS

So why didn't you file taxes? Because your income was below allowed level?

as long as you entered LEGALLY, then your overstay and being out of status will be forgiven once you marry a USC.
i overstayed and was out of status over 4 years and it was not mentioned or brought up at any point in my GC process.
