Work authorization on K1 ?

[florinaRO 5]

I got my passport stamped with "work authorization" at POE. Would that mean I am authorized to work in the US next 90 days? Are there any restrictions ? Soon I will apply for AOS , will I be able to work then too?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated !

That stamp is not valid for employment according to the employment eligibility form, the I-9, unfortunately. It means you can apply for a work permit, which you can, but it would expire when your 90 days are up, and would take around 90 days to process, so is generally considered a waste of money. Marry and apply for AOS and your EAD for that (different category, doesn't expire after 90 days). Good luck.

EAD stamp is NOT valid for K-1.
