The documents you need to file an adjustment status application really depends on what the relationship is between you and the beneficiary who you are filing for.
For example, for a spouse, obviously we will need a marriage certificate, birth certificate, and proof that the marriage is valid, or that you have a life together, a rent receipt, bank accounts, health insurance, car loans, or birth certificates of your children.
If it’s just a child, all you need is your birth certificate, your child’s birth certificate, and usually the marriage certificate.
Filing fees are incredibly expensive. You’re looking at $1,490 for adjustment application, which includes the I-130.

The process can get complicated or it may not be. It really depends on what immigration officer you’re going to have. At least that’s been my experience.
If it’s a marriage case and it’s a short relationship before you got married and there’s not a lot of supporting documents showing the validity of the marriage, the officer may separate each one of you and conduct and interview.
At that type of an interview, the attorney is able to be in the interviewing room with each person. It really depends on the case. If you’ve documented the case very thoroughly and you have children, for example, the interview should go rather quickly.
