You marry.

You file AoS

Assume 90 day wait for EAD, you can then work.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

It will be 3-6 months after coming to USA

If you get married right away and file right away you will get your Employment authorization card in about 3 months

If you get married around the 3 month mark and then file right away (1100 dollars almost)

Then you will get your Employment card in about 3 months

So it is about 3 months from the time you submit your Adjustment of Status paperwork, pay the 1100 dollar fee, get an interview, pass the interview without Administrative Processing

There are many steps you need to take before you are authorized to work in the USA

Good Luck and Congrats
