Fiancée and kids were just approved for their visas. We anticipate them being here in March. 

 

Is there a forum or guide for help with the next process?  Of course getting married is a high priority. But not familiar with the others steps... EAD, AOS, SSN,  Especially with K2s.

The K-1 flowchart might be helpful.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

My recommendation is to research the AOS process as much as possible before you take any action.  This AOS is a new ball game, by that I mean there is a wealth of information on the 129-F but not so much on the EAD.  We made some mistakes by trying to hurry the process.

A K1 doesn't need to file an i130

Unless they marry after 90 days.

Pedantism at its finest.  The OP's fiancee and kids are not even in the USA yet.  However, I will change my answer, 99.9999999% of K1's do NOT need to file an i130.

Yes, correcting a statistically insignificant item is so incredibly important

It isn't insignificant at all if it provides a bit of information to less knowledgeable members.  An ACCURATE, complete answer is ALWAYS better for obvious reasons.  There have been cases which were denied because the member didn't realize he/she had  to submit an I-130 after missing the 90 day window for marrying.  It happened just a couple months ago. 

I'm out.
