My wife and I just got married on Saturday and I'm putting everything together to send in the AOS by next week. Her visa actually expires tomorrow, 24APR2008.

I just saw that the forms ask for an SSN, but she doesn't have one. Do I have to get that for her before I can mail in the AOS packet?

Am I screwed? People arent going to come storm my house and put her on a plane back to Thailand are they?? Is is that bad to be late sending in the AOS papers?

don't worry about the expiration date on the K1 Visa. As long as you got married within 90 days that she entered the US she is fine.

There is no time limit to file for AOS but I would suggest to file it as soon as possible because you can never tell how long it will take.

As long as you got married within the 90 days of her coming into the US, then don't worry about the date on the visa. She also doesn't need a SSN for AOS. I didn't have mine when I sent it in and I put "none" in that space. So there is no need to worry about that.

Two thing: 1) As stated above, as long as you marry within the 90 days of your arrival under a K1 visa you are fine. It is best to file soon to simplify things, but some filed months after getting married on a K1 and were approved without any more issues than any one else.

2) No you do not need a SS card and therefore SS# to apply for AOS. Just wright N/A next to it. Now you are going to need one to work. Given that her 90 days expire soon she won't be able to obtain one now (they don't do it after 74 days or so in the US). You will have to wait either for the EAD or the Green Card to arrive now to be able to get it.
