After my I-140 was approved, I got married. Can I add my new wife to the I-140?

Answer

There is no need to add one’s wife to the I-140 in this situation. When the priority date is current, both spouses generally are eligible to file their I-485 applications, regardless of whether the spouse is listed in the I-140. (04.Nov.2025)
