After we marry in the US - I'm the non US part of the relationship whistling.gif - What do I do next? Which forms do I have to file for residency and the ability to work? kicking.gif


ps: My K1 has been approved pending a form that I have sent to the embassy - Now waiting for my passport to be returned with the issued visa.

Arrive US, file for marriage licence, apply for SSN two weeks after entering the US, get married and obtain the marriage licence (you will need this).

Make sure you bring all the paperwork (including copies) that you submitted to the US Embassy with you when you travel to the US. Make sure you have your birth cert and if you was married before, include the divorce papers from the court that issued it (bring 2 coppies) as well as you will need them.

Then follow the instructions on the guide here >> http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...mp;page=k1k3aos

Hope this helps.

You file AOS, for which the mandatory form is I-485; optionally*** you file I-765 for EAD and I-131 for AP.

***If you wish to "exercise option" of not working and not travelling outside US until your I-485 is complete.
