I also was stuck on those questions but someone who had just gone thru that told me that the answer shld be NO",dnt forget k1 is not a permanent residency there fore subject to restrictions.Until u make an adjustment after u get married etc and file all other necessaries u are not allowed to work.hope this helps.I trust someone who can be more explicit will jump in and help explain what i mean,but somewhere in this reply there is an answer

32 - Yes, with Work Authorization

33 - No

See sample forms in VJ Website..

"Peace is not the product of terror or fear. Peace is not the silence of cemeteries. Peace is not the silent result of violent repression. Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all. Peace is dynamism. Peace is generosity. It is right and it is duty." -- NAPF page on Oscar Romero

32. No

33. No

I know, and I guess they know it too, I'm going to study and I'll work when I have my authorization, but at the moment of the interview I intend to marry, that is the purpose of the visa

We can all make a difference. Please recycle

Thanks. I saw sample form on VJ, but I think "No" for both questions is the right answer.

I am sure the right answer is the truthful answer. If she intends on working then saying yes with proper authorization is the right way to go. They know she can't get authorization without getting married, so it's not a problem.

I think it's a lot worse if you say no and then apply for work authorization right after saying she doesn't intend to work.

Tanya's application and her daughter's application said: Yes, with proper authorization ... K Visa approved on both. So, I would say this is NOT a "gotcha" question and should be answered accurately.
