Hi,

Because you are K1, you will file your AOS(adjustment of status) along with your EAD or I-765(employment authorization) after you got married.EAD is not included in I-129F...

You have two options with the K-1 visa.

1) prepare it now (or whenever) and place it in a US mail box immediately (or shortly thereafter) after your arrival on your K-1 visa with a check for $340 and wait 2-3 months.

2) Wait until after you are married and submit it with your AOS for FREE and wait 2-3 months. If you will get married and file AOS fairly quickly after arriving, I would wait and file it with AOS. If you are anxious to work and will wait for nearly 90 days to file AOS, maybe it is a good idea for you to do it earlier.

You cannot do it before arriving in the USA under the K-1 visa

Option 1 is only valid until your I-94 expires which is 90 days after entry. If it takes 2 -3 months to receive it is a waste of money since you do not have work authorization after the 90 days.

Wow, that sucks! Do you know if i cant work am i allowed to volunteer or is that classed as work? Can i study also if i want to? Im more than happy to file it asap but my fiance is in North Carolina and there is really not a lot around Goldsboro so would like to meet some people somehow!

You can definitely volunteer. It helped keep me sane.

Check out the AOS guides. The sooner you send your AOS off, the sooner you get your EAD, so it can be a good idea to start getting things together while you have a chance.

Volunteer, yes, absolutely.

Study? Depends on the school, in most, yes. You ARE here legally, you are just not a resident yet. States and individual schools will make their own rules about this. My wife began her education immediately, within four days of arriving.
