Got greened today, Marriage based submitted without lawyers. F1 to resident

I-130 & I-485 (Family/Adjustment of status)

(Important, I’m not a lawyer neither can give you legal advice, this is just my own experience)

Got greened today, we didn’t use lawyers as we filled out all the forms and gather all the evidence by ourselves. It is an specific case tho, I came as an international student, so it may be a bit different for other people.

If you are planning to submit it by yourself and have questions of how we did it, I’m happy to answer from my own experience.

(Note: we did consult some lawyers during the process but just to clarify doubts.)
