Your K-1 expiry date goes there.

You put your I-94 date, not your K1 visa date. The K1 visa is "dead" once you arrive and I-94 date is what matters.

Don't worry about your I-94 being expired. Mine expired Dec 2009 and I applied April 2010. Absolutely zero issues (as long as you married in the 90 days of course which is what they're looking at)

p.s. The example posted above shows you it's the I-94 date that you write in expiry section as it's 3 months from the arrival date.

I doubt it really matters honestly. If they really cared they'd have written "K1 visa expiry date". I think they just assume people realise it's for the I-94 as it's following the I-94 info.

Ah well

Yep, K-1 exp date has to do with by when you need to use the visa to enter the USA, it has nothing to do with when you need to adjust status. The exp date the I-485 is asking to is I-94 date, this is the date you become out of status.
