Thanks Dave and Roza,

thats very helpful information.

State ID and DLs are very, very state specific. Some will allow you to use the I-94 and issue you an ID or DL and others will do nothing until you have the GC (Green Card) in hand. I would recommend that you get your SSC (Social Security Card) after waiting about 2 weeks after arrival. You will need that number for all kinds of things here in the US and as a K-1 visa holder you are eligible to receive one while the I-94 is valid (up to two weeks before it expires). You have until the I-94 expires to get married and after getting married you need to file for AOS (adjustment of status) which costs $1070. The sooner you file AOS the sooner you can work and travel internationally. It is recommended that you also file EAD (Employment Authorization Document) and AP (Advance Parole) as they are free when you file for AOS and usually arrive sooner than the GC.

Good luck,

Dave

XOXO- Timzel
