clueless,

You can go to your local SSA office tomorrow and apply for your SSN on the basis of your K1 status. You can an I-765 application for an EAD to the USCIS tomorrow also, on the same basis, but you'll be lucky to receive it before your status ends and your employment authorization ends with it.

Your best bet is probably to send an I-765 along with your I-485 application to adjust status as soon as possible after your marriage.

Find local SSA office:

http://www.ssa.gov/locator

You need to remember that SSA will not assign an SSN or issue a card if your status has expired or is

within 14 days of expiring.

K-1 status is good for 90 days, so that only gives you 76 days to be

assigned an SSN and issued a card. After that time you will need an EAD

or I-551 card to establish authorization to work. Before that time the

I-94 showing K-1 status is the document that establishes authorization

to work for SSN purposes.

The status/documents of all aliens must be verified before SSA will

assign an SSN and/or issue a card and the 14 day limit applies even if

you pass the 76th day while waiting for your status to be verified.

The SSA office will try to verify your status through the SAVE system

while you are at the office. If they can't, they will send a form G-845

to immigration for manual verification. This could delay the assigning

of an SSN and/or issuing a card for weeks and some times months.

If the SSA office does send the G-845, suggest that you go back to the

SSA office no more than once a week with your documents to (1) ask them

to check SAVE again (2) ask if they sent a G-845 (3) if yes, did it come

back (4) after 30 days ask if they have followed up on the G-845 by

calling or sending another mark "second request."

RM 00203.735 Requesting Online (Primary) Verification By SAVE

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After having waited at least 30 days and your local SSA office doesn't

seen concerned about following up on the G-845 you can try contacting

the SSA Regional Office (RO) responsible for your state:

http://www.ssa.gov/pressoffice/natlpocontacts.html

Refer them to this:

http://policy.ssa.gov/poms.nsf/lnx/0100203740

B. PROCEDURE – HOW TO REQUEST MANUAL VERIFICATION

STEP 6

DHS should respond to SSA within 15 federal work days after receiving

the Form G-845. If DHS does not respond within 15 federal work days from

the receipt of the G-845 from SSA, follow-up with the DHS, USCIS

Immigration Status office. (Allow 15 days plus five additional federal

work days of mail time for the G-845 to be received at and returned from

DHS.

Follow local practice to follow-up with DHS. Some SSA offices have an

arrangement with the DHS, USCIS office to telephone for the follow-up

contact; other SSA offices send a copy of the original G-845 annotated

“second request.”) If the DHS response is still not received within 15

federal work days after the follow-up contact (if the follow-up is by

mail allow five additional federal work days of mail time for the G-845

to be received at and returned from DHS), make a second follow-up

contact. If the DHS response is not received within 15 federal workdays

(again, if the follow-up is by mail, allow five additional federal work

days of mail time for the G-845 to be received at and returned from

DHS), after two follow-ups, contact the RO. Also report to the RO any trend that shows a serious

deviation by DHS from the above time frames. The RO will consult with central office.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suggest that you take your birth certificate, passport and I-94 when

going to apply. That should cover age, identity and work authorized alien status.

I don't know ANYTHING about this so please be patient. I've heard somewhere that you can apply for a work permit when you get your K-1 visa from the consulate, is that true? Because with the K-1 visa if you have the work permit you can work during that 90 day period, married or not, right? What is the best way to go about getting a work permit and having it ready for when my fiancee can come here? Thanks for your help!!
