2024婚绿准备材料F1 STEM OPT身份

新人第一次在地里发帖 之前准备婚绿申请时没有请律师 多亏地里各种前辈留下的帖子解决了不少问题 我在2024年3月底提交婚绿申请 到今天显示130在actively review的状态 虽然还在等待过程中 但希望自己可以像之前无私帮助过我的那些写下宝贵经验帖的各位一样 来回馈地里现在和将来准备DIY绿卡申请的朋友们 一路以来的准备和材料清单如下
希望这些经验可以帮助的有需要的朋友们呀~~DIY的过程虽然超级焦虑 但是还是非常可行滴 结合网上的各种视频文字资源 完全可以省下这笔律师费 大家一起等待绿卡吧~ 祝福~

欢迎大家给我加米呀~~ 新人好多帖子积分不够看不了:(


一些Tips:
填N/A 不要留空
实习 part time 都要填employment history
不要highlight文件 用透明便签纸
用便签在下方标识文件名称 整份用5个黑色夹子夹住
