If the K-1 holder receives the employment authorized stamp on their I-94 when they enter the US, then they can work until the I-94 expires - 90 days.

However, there are more complications, like having to wait for a social security number to be issued (can't work without one) and actually finding someone to hire you who knows that it is acceptable to use the employment authorised I-94 as proof of legal work status, not to mention the fact that after 90 days you are no longer work authorised until AOS....

Biggest waste of time and money to go through JFK for the little red stamp, honestly.

AOS (Green-Card) or EAD card which ever arrives first.

And also K-1 should not file for EAD BEFORE filing for AOS. EAD BEFORE AOS costs $340 and can take 90 days or more to get and it expires same date as the I-94 card, so is a USELESS waste of $340.

File for EAD with AOS, using code (c )(9 ) this EAD is included in the AOS fee.
