What if I-94 expires while waiting for AOS?

[Jan and Steve 0]

Hi everyone,

I don't quite understand the AOS process and I looked in the guides for an answer to my question, but haven't come up with a solid answer yet. If I apply for the AOS and EAD right after I get married on a K-1, what happens when the I-94 expires? After the 90 days have passed to get married, and I have gotten married within that time, what is my status, while I am waiting for the AOS, and is there something I have to do?

Confused again.

Thanks!

You'll be out of status but it's ok as long as you have pending AOS... It's ok too even if you didn't file AOS right away as long as you got married within the 90-day period. The good thing about having an approved AOS is you can work, travel outside the country and live the American life freely.

You will be on a "period of stay authorized by the attorney general".
