Hello,

I was just curious if there was anything the actual GREEN CARD was needed for. Once my fiancée comes in with a K-1 visa and gets AP and EAD, she can work, she can travel, and she's not illegally staying here.

Is there any functional benefits of having the green card besides just making working and travelling a little bit easier than with EAD/AP?

Hello,

Is there any functional benefits of having the green card besides just making working and travelling a little bit easier than with EAD/AP?

Considering the K1 is valid only 90 days, and she wouldn't be eligible to apply for EAD and AP if she doesn't also apply for the green card, yeah, it serves a huge purpose!

divorced - April 2010 moved back to Ontario May 2010 and surrendered green card

PLEASE DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME OR EMAIL ME. I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT CURRENT US IMMIGRATION PROCEDURES!!!!!

All those reasons listed on that site and ... you can't get AP and EAD without applying for the green card :)
