question about when to file visa extension.

[petitebyrd 0]

i wanna know if i have 45 days until my visa expires or if i have 45 days until my I-94 expires to file for my visa extension. I want to know this because I have file for AOS on a K-3 visa. My visa expires before my I-94. My Visa expires on May, 16 and my I-94 is on July 10.

You file for an extension of the K-3 visa before it expires ONLY if you wish to travel out of the country while I-485 is in process.

K-3 does NOT file an I-131 for an AP doc, the K-3 allows travel and re-entry while AOS is processing.

The I-94 can expire but it is recommended to file I-485 while the I-94 is still valid.

NOTE: if your visa medical was more that a year before you file the I-485, then you will need to visit a US Civil surgeon and get a FULL medical done on an I-693

If you are not going to extend your K3 then you will file for a new EAD along with your AOS.

Correct, EAD based on a pending I-485 costs nothing. Renewing your existing EAD before filing AOS will cost you $340 more.

File I-765 along with the I-485, and code the I-765 (C )(9 ) based on pending I-485.
