You're adjusting status from K1 before you've got married? Can you do that?

Glad you got the SSN in your married name now. My husband has his driver's license now and that is a good thing. Hopefully this week, we can register his car. Just needed up to date insurance with his name on it.

Really, your EAD was approved in less than 30 days? Wow! What kind of visa did you come to the U.S. on?

It wasn't really about the visa, I was working for a year as a RN here. And I lost my job because of my previous EAD expiring, ever since then my wife and I have had enormous trouble keeping afloat financially (wedding was a bit more than planned). So we contacted out local congressman.

Ok, I know all of us K-1 AOSers have a while to wait. You already had an EAD so I figure that makes it easier to get a replacement, maybe. Glad you got yours. My husband can't wait for his.

If you can prove financial hardship and that you have an active job offer you can request an expedite. That in itself was almost as much work as the USCIS paperwork, I think I must have faxed them 30 or so pages with bills and bank statements and pay stubs :)

Woohoo finally got my biometrics in the mail today :dance: and my case status has not shown any touches, so obviously thats not all that reliable!

My appointment is not til the end of August, so Im wondering about weather to try do a walk in, as the office is really close to me.

For anyone who has done a successful walk in, how long did you wait after getting the NOA for the appointment???

I went on a Wednesday so it was 2 days. I don't know why but whenever I read about walk-ins they say it is better on a Wednesday. I have no idea if there is any truth behind it or not, but it worked for me.

During the appointment they were able to pull me up successfully from their database using the bar codes, so I think you should be ok.

I'm just wondering re: the locations for the biometrics appts for both the EAD and AP-I'm in Austin: will the appointment(s) be here, San Antonio or Dallas...?

I know it'll say in my letter(s), but I'm excited! hehe. Excitable and impatient minds want to know :lol:

Apparently, there's one in Austin, too. They send most people to the closest one so I'm sure you'll get Austin:
