K-1 about to expire yet no social security. Help!

[junyeon82 0]

Hi,

My fiancee applied for her social security card after 14 days upon her arrival in US.

After a month, we didn't get the card so we checked back with the SSA and they said it might take up to another 2-3 weeks because of their error.

I'm getting worried because her visa is about to expire and we can't get married because we don't have marriage license.

Is there a way for USCIS to extend her K-1 Visa? I mean we're trying to get married but we just can't!

so why can't you get married and do the AOS then at this point apply for EAD, AP, and SSA?

In Missouri, we need social security # to get a marriage license.

You know this because you spoke to a person at your local 'marriage license issuing' office? Or it was on a web site?

If it is indeed true - go to another state. Do not miss getting married within 90-days of entering the US.

according to this site http://recorder.sccmo.org/recorder/index.p...4&Itemid=18

Foreign applicants must present their valid government issued ID along with a certified English translation of all non-English identification used. If a translator is needed, arrangements for an appointment with our office must be made well in advance.

Shot Gun wedding at Vegas sounds fun also!!

Marriage laws are State dependant. Some States require each party to have a SS#.

I agree with Karin, go to another State to get married.

With US Entry on 03-14-09, the I-94 expires on or about 06-12-09... It would seem you have a little bit of time yet...

I just spoke to the recorder of deeds (in Jackson County Mo.) and asked her if it was required. She said no - all your fiancé will need to do is sign a document/form stating she does not have one (a SSN). (She will need her passport though.)

(816) 881-1577

Question asked:

"My fiancé is from out of the country - does she need a social security number/card to get a marriage license?"

(This is why I asked if you spoke to a person or read it on the web site - many states list SSN as a requirement, but have the same/similar rules for folks who don't have one)
