    I agree best practice is to apply prior to marriage but the denial was in no way correct. OP should try a different office if able and still within status. I’m out.

    No, what they were told is not correct. You are allowed to get apply for SSN after marriage, and plenty of us here have. I’ll not dispute that it is best practice to apply before, as mix ups like this can happen, but you are well within your rights to apply for SSN as a K-1 after marriage, as long as your I-94 hasn’t yet expired.

    Literally every reply to this post is an assumption. Without being either of the candidates or within their inner circles, that’s pretty much all you’re left with.

    Yes. Got SSN in 2021 after marriage. No issues. Just do it as quickly as possible as they can only issues it while the I94 is still valid.

    I would just add a short statement saying why you filed MFS instead of MFJ. It is totally valid that you filed the way that was most financially advantageous. We did MFS in 2021 for exactly the same reasons. I just included the statement with my I751.

    Yes you can travel no problem. Btw these days it is a 48 month extension.

    I got SSN after marriage in 2021. Wedding was already arranged for two weeks after arrival in US. On first day here I called the SS office and they wouldn’t even allow me to book a place (during Covid) for two weeks due to outdated SAVE considerations. So, I got an appointment exactly a week after I got married. 100% no issues. With that being said, get the ball rolling ASAP as you only have a very small window on your I-94 to be issued the SSN as they will not issue one after day 76.

    Regardless of the stats you're quoting, people have already given you the answer: it is questionable at best as to whether this would work. Furthermore, CR-1 is generally superior, so you aren't in too bad a spot.

    Your initial relationship is already established. You need to supply evidence of an ongoing marital relationship. Online dating chat logs are (hopefully) not a part of that.

    SSN is often required to DL. In my state a K1 can get a DL without EAD or GC, but they 100% *must* have an SSN.

    Congrats!

    A two year work history requirement is common but by no means ubiquitous. I would recommend shopping around, look at local credit unions, talk to realtors etc etc. Admittedly I don’t have a commission job but was included on the mortgage with less than six months work history. Hopefully you will be able to find a loan officer who understands your situation and can make exceptions or knows which avenues to follow. Good luck!

    Ugh as far as I know there isn’t really a good option. It is a very niche marketplace and small set of consumers. Granted I haven’t researched it in a couple years. Obamacare is out. Travel insurance is lighting money on fire. Back in 2021 I bought some short term coverage through Loomis but honestly I am extremely glad I never tried to use it because who knows if it would’ve paid. Short answer is the best way to get health insurance is to get married. If you decide to wait on getting married then that is up to you, but you at least know the risk you are taking (not to mention longer to get green card/papers etc etc) Good luck!

    Not in AZ but posed a similar question to the WI DMV a few months ago. Answer: - renew before I-751, get a new license valid to end of green card (in my case added like six weeks as my DL expired on my birthday) - renew after I-751 get an eight (yes! Eight!) year license I did the latter and got an eight year license, which is curiously valid well beyond my extension letter. I would recommend you file I-751 at the beginning of your window and then renew with the extension letter - they are coming pretty quick, mine was like two or three weeks back in Feb this year.

    I used Wise. Easy interface and low fees. Comes with a debit card too, as well as the ability to convert into a tonne of other currencies if ever needed. As for the UK residency part of closing accounts, I think many members here still maintain theirs. It’s not like they ask when you leave, and it is necessary for tying up loose ends etc
