The filing governmental fee (payable to the Department of Homeland Security) is $1,365.00. If you hire an attorney, there is also a legal fee paid to the lawyer.

It can take anywhere from 4 months to a year or even longer in complicated case.

Hi,

Since you initially entered the U.S. legally (even if your I-94 has now expired), and are now married to a U.S. citizen, the sponsorship paperwork can be filed and you can adjust status in the U.S. It will take between 2 and 3 months for you to be issued employment authorization document (or EAD), and another few months after that the marriage interview will be scheduled by the USCIS. At the conclusion of a successful marriage interview, you will receive resident status.

Please email our law firm at [email protected] so that we can without any obligation send you list of required documents, fees, etc. for you consideration.

Regards,

Ajay K. Arora, Esq.
