Hello,

I was wondering what the best options are for us at the moment.

Here is the background:

I'm a US Citizen, she is a J1 trainee holder. She has been in the US for one year two months. Her J-1 is over in July.

We married in December.

Should we be applying for a change of status to a K visa? Or should we be shooting straight for greencard. I notice there are a few forms to fill out for the greencard, am I correct in saying that we only need to fill out Form I-130 & Form I-485?

Thank you.
