US Immigration from Spain

I arrived on k1 visa, applied for social security on the first week of May and they told me it ll take 4 to 6 weeks. I m still waiting for it, my question is can I apply for AOS and other documents like EAD and for travel while my social security is in process?

It's probably been posted before but can't find it right now. How can I get passed the automated system when I call USCIS at 1-800-375-5283, anybody knows?

I know others have been successful in talking to a Tier 2 agent.

We found out today that our petition was transferred from Nebraska to Potomac office, thus meaning longer processing times. We both live in Spain currently and I (US Citizen) received a job offer with a start date of October 2021 and were hoping to both be able to move to the States for my job in the Fall. After the news, I spent the day trying to figure out if we could get it expedited/contact with representatives. My husband, from Spain and in possession of an ESTA visa, would be able to come for 3 months on a tourist visa, but I wondered if instead of trying to rush the processing times (which I know is a slim chance) if there were a way to just get an extended visitor visa while we are waiting? I know I've heard of other couples getting to visit for 6 months in the forum. Is that possible for Europe/US couples? Thanks for any advice ahead of time!

Anyone gotten interviews at the Madrid Embassy lately? In the past, they have been quite speedy from DQ to interview notice, about 10-14 days but I haven't heard anything and it's been almost a month. Maybe they are prioritizing K1s ahead of CR1/IR1 this month?

I am currently waiting on the 2nd NOA from the Nebraska processing center, which from everything I've read and the timelines of other members, should be one of the faster processing centers. But we haven't heard anything and we originally filed in September 2020. I (the petitioner) accepted a job offer and will start in October in the States. We thought that should give us time to have the visa, but I'm starting to get worried. If I try to submit an inquiry it says the case is still within normal processing times. Is there a way that a job offer could be grounds to ask for a (slightly) expedited decision? Or do we just have to wait and hope for the best?
