Yes, and it took about 100 days. Check my timeline. A K3 EAD expires with the I-94 or at AOS approval, whichever comes first.

I got my EAD before we even sent in the aps for AOS IIRC. I dunno, it was a looooooong time ago now.

Best thing about a K3 getting EAD before they file for AOS is that you get a 2 year EAD, but if you send in the app with the AOS, you'd only get a one year EAD. It costs extra that way now, but worth it IMO.

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!!!!!
