RUnpod on window

Hi everyone,

I’ve been using Google Colab to train my models, but Colab Pro+ only gives me 600 compute units, which isn’t enough for my workload. I’m switching to RunPod now.

Do you have any tutorials or tips on how to upload data and code from Windows and set up model training on RunPod?

Any advice would be appreciated.

I-130/I-485 Concurrent Filing Question this July

Hi everyone,

I plan to file Form I-130, Form I-485, and Form I-765 (EAD) concurrently under the F2A category this July. My husband is a U.S. permanent resident (green card holder).

Since I understand that I cannot file this package online, I will need to submit everything by mail.

Are there any good guides or checklists for preparing a marriage-based AOS package? Specifically, I'm looking for:

  • How to organize the application packet
  • A checklist of all required forms and supporting documents
  • What evidence of a bona fide marriage I should include
  • Any tips to avoid common mistakes when filing

For reference, I am currently in my first year of F-1 OPT and have maintained my status.

I would really appreciate any advice or sample cover letters/checklists from people who have gone through this process.

OPT then I 485 or

Hi everyone,

I’m currently waiting for my fingerprint appointment for my first‑year OPT (I filed with premium processing and expect the EAD around July).

My spouse wants to file the I‑130 and I‑485 for me in July because the F2A category is “Current” for concurrent filing right now. I’m worried that in August the Visa Bulletin might retrogress.

My question is:

Should I wait until my OPT EAD is approved before filing the I‑130/I‑485, or is it okay to file both at the same time?

I’m looking for advice from people who understand this situation.

Thank you very much.

Filing F2A and I-485 Without a Lawyer – How Do I Submit the Medical Exam?

Hi everyone,

I am a green card holder and plan to file an F2A petition for my spouse on my own because the attorney fees are quite expensive for me.

I understand that some forms can now be filed online, but I am confused about the medical examination form (Form I-693). Previously, when I worked with a lawyer, I simply gave the sealed medical package to the attorney, and they handled the submission.

If I file the case myself, how do I submit the I-693? Do I mail it separately, bring it to an interview, or wait for a Request for Evidence (RFE) from USCIS?

If anyone has gone through the F2A process recently and filed without a lawyer, I would really appreciate hearing about your experience and any tips or suggestions.

Thank you very much!
