Hi All Vjers

Travelled yday from Toronto to JFK with the expectation of getting a EAD stamp in the passport, but it totally skipped my mind that my POE would still be Toronto.. my fiancee's place is closer from LGA then JFK spent $20 more on Cab..
well at the immigration counter the officer seeing my canadian passport was just scanning my passport and allowing me to go till he asked the reason why i am going and i said to Marry and he was like Hold on here what visa u hv and then he looked at my K1 visa and then asked whn are u getting mrrd and i said probably this week and he was like congrats
then he asked me for the packet and opened it and then said he will chk with sum1 and be bck then he put all the docs in another yellow plastic folder and he pointed out to go the seconadry inspection area..
There they took my fingerprints and picture stamped my passport wrote the A# behind I94 and said i was good to go. kicking.gif

another thing the officer @ YYZ put only 3 months helpsmilie.gif validity on my I94 so my I94 expires on Sep 11, I asked him for the EAD stamp and he said he is not aware if you can get it with K1 but said once you get yr ssn# you are eligible to work??? unsure.gif unsure.gif bunch of crap if thts the case then why apply for EAD..

This morning got my marriage license from the city of clerk in Queens and shall Marry there on THU you all are invited to witness this one great event biggrin.gif yes.gif
Also i told i need extra copies of my Marriage certificate so i get 2 for $25

The other thing that i tried was the DMV no one is interested to wht u gotta say,,, transfer licence BOOM comes oyt he form with all instructions and those stupid POINTS reqd.. so the Licence is not happening till i get my SSN# which i shll apply or try to apply next week...

So it was pretty much smooth all the best to all u there waiting

So, I'm confused, did you go through JFK???? And they didn't issue you an authorization to work immediately???? Please explain and let me know as I am trying to confirm this with the U.S. and still waiting for an answer from them.... I think my fiance may be retired before I actually get one form them! LOL

Thanks!

And welcome to the land of opportunity!!!!!
