What documents constitute an application for AOS?
The I.N.S. forms that constitute the core of an AOS application are: I-485, and G-325A (the last form is only required of applicants 14 years of age and older). In addition, the applicant must submit the results of a medical examination, a certified copy of the applicant’s record of birth, a copy of the applicant’s arrival document (form I-94), two “green card” style photographs, and evidence that the applicant is not likely to become a public charge. If applicable, the applicant must also submit copies of all marriage certificates, divorce decrees, death certificates (of former spouses), birth certificates of all children, and certified copies of any and all arrests and criminal court records. All documents written in languages other than English must be translated into English.
