Thinking about your fiancé(e) working in the US on a K-1 visa? Here’s a quick guide:
-
Work Permit Needed (EAD): They can apply for an EAD (work permit) after entering the US, but it takes time to process.
-
Start Working Later: They likely won’t be able to work right away. Apply for the EAD ASAP upon arrival.
-
Job Limitations Possible: There might be restrictions on the type of jobs your fiancé(e) can take.
-
Social Security Number Needed: An EAD allows them to apply for a Social Security Number (SSN) for legal work.
-
Focus on Getting Married: Remember, the K-1 visa is for marriage. After getting married, they can apply for a green card to continue working legally.
