my answer to that question is NO..

the reason of K1 visa is to marry the fiance not to work or study

just to go on the safe side..

OMG! in my own opinion "intend" is different from want or like... thats why i put a NO.

cause i want and i like but thats not my intention, or goal, or purpose

intend, intensions, goal, purpose, aim, objective = whatever lol. i think they are synonymous

i think im just a confused child lol.

DS forms are consulate forms, moving thread to:

US Embassy and Consulate Discussion

You are almost there and now you have to deal with the embassy. This is the place to post your experiences or questions related to this last step before moving to the US. Topics relating to I-134's, packets sent from consulate and medical & police certificates should be posted here.

Do you think the CO will believe you don't intend to work in the US?

when does work authorization occur during for K1 visa?

I'm wondering this as well, and have been told you have to wait for AOS.. but I have also heard that at certain POE's you can get a stamp on the I-94 that gives you authorization to work on the K1.

I work with J1 visa students, and handle the work offers they take to the consulate and all paperwork when they arrive, so had a connection to ask about this. My"connection" told me this isn't allowed anymore.. but one of my previous employees came back in July, on K1 Visa, and DID get this stamp through JFK.

He said he went to the office in the airport, filled out the form they gave him and put the stamp on his I-94. It allowed him to work until the K1 was expired. He worked for 3 months and is now waiting for work authorization again, after filing his AOS.

02/23/08 - Met in Turkey
07/09/08 - Denial of Visitor Visa to U.S.A.
06/04/09 - 2nd Denial of Visitor Visa to U.S.A.

Work authorization is not an automatic thing. As a K-1 you are eligible to receive work authorization for up to 90 days upon arrival....and you are also eligible to receive work authorization after your marriage when you apply to adjust your status.
