After you are married you will need to record your marriage certificate, then request certified copies to start the AOS process.
As a side note, once your I-94 is available on the CBP website, print out a few copies. You can then head over to your nearest SSA office to get the SS card. You will need to completed the SS-5 form.
For Adjustment of Status you will submit the following forms:
I-485; https://www.uscis.gov/i-485
I-864; https://www.uscis.gov/i-864
I-693; https://www.uscis.gov/i-693
Optional forms (both are free to file when included with the I-485):
I-131 (Advance Parole); https://www.uscis.gov/i-131
I-765 (Employment Authorization Document); https://www.uscis.gov/i-765
Required Forms, and required accompanying evidence
The I-485 is filed for the Conditional Green Card, which has two year validity. It is to be accompanied by the I-864, Affidavit of Support and the I-693, Medical Examination and Vaccination Record.
I-485 is to be completed by visa beneficiary after marriage. You will need a certified copy of your marriage certificate. You can get this form the County Recorder or Clerk of Court depending on the process for the state where you were married. I would suggest to get at least 3 copies of the certified marriage certificate as you will need a copy for the I-485 then for SSA and ROM (Philippines). You also need to include a copy of your I-797 Approval Notices (NOA1 & NOA2).
I-864 is for the financial support and is completed (for the most part) by the USC spouse. This form is to be accompanied by a copy of your most recent tax return (tax transcript from the IRS is preferred by USCIS) and W2. Including 3 years of tax returns is optional, not required. DO NOT submit copies of state tax returns.
I-693 You take this form and the DS-3025 Vaccination Record to a Civil Surgeon (from the USCIS list). The Civil Surgeon will transcribe the DS-3025 vaccinations to the I-693, then the I-693 will be put in a sealed envelope and given to you to accompany the I-485. A new medical examination is NOT required, your medical from St. Luke's is valid for ONE year.
