My fiance has just arrived to the U.S.A. we plan to get married at the beginning of February 2012.

Is she able to legally work before our wedding?

If so, please provide any and all information as to how she can legally work asap. Thanks!

She is not legal to work until he has the EAD card in his hand.

She must marry file for AOS EAD AP and wait for around 3 months till the EAD card is approved and arrives.

There is no ASAP in the K-1 process, if she wanted to work right away then a CR-1 would have been the proper way.

Your I-129f was approved in 5 days from your NOA1 date.

Your interview took 67 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

AOS was approved in 2 months and 8 days without interview.

ROC was approved in 3 months and 2 days without interview.

If you get married in February 2012 and apply for AOS and EAD right away, the earliest she will be able to legally work is maybe April-May time frame.

My Immigration Journey:

K1: June 2010 - December 2010

AOS: April 2011 - June 2011

ROC: April 2013 - August 2013

Naturalization: March 2014 - August 2014
