Green card k1 visa queries

[MBJ 0]

Hi folks,

BmJ and myself are currently approaching the end of our k1 app *fingers crossed its soon* however there is a possible chance I can gain employment with the US company I work for, I understand that if I work in the US I need my green card but will this interfeer with the K1 ? Im already thinking I will have to return the UK for my interview should I get the job before my interview date is given I know that once Im approved for my K1 I need to apply for change of staus etc etc and that part of that is obtaining a temp green card, but what if I get a job before then ? what then ?

Any ideas or insights would be appreciated.

Try and get a flight into the country through JFK airport. They appear to be the only place that still gives out 90 day K-1 work stamps. After that, get married and file for EAD/Greencard as soon as possible.

Granted, many have continued working after their K-1 has expired and been forgiven once the green card is approved. I can't personally recommend that as I wouldn't want to give bad advice. But it's up to you.
