Why would you want to that, as you will spend more money. As $1070 for AOS include EAD and AP. Also your EAD will only good till your I-94 is valid, which at this point you will not be able to renew it and will need to file for AOS. Just file for AOS and you can get your EAD within 3 month.

It will take 60 to 90 days from application to EAD and a couple more weeks to get a SS Card.

They already said why. They want to work while they save for the AOS. My wife did exactly that, as did my step daughter but that was under the 1996 fees, not the current ones.

ead is free to apply now? its included with k3 fees?

This is totally incorrect. EAD has a separate fee unless applied for in conjunction with adjustment of status. EAD is not needed with a CR1 visa but K3 is not CR1. K3 visa holders are not work authorized.

You wrote, "ead is free to apply now? its included with k3 fees? " EAD is not included with K3 fees. Oksana and Mark indicated what they would choose in THEIR circumstances. The OP is in a different circumstance, is presumably an adult, and can make their own decision, if given the applicable information.

Nothing personal and no harassment. I'm just making sure the couple has the information they need, the correct information. Yes, they said the reason they are considering EAD separately was to work while they save up the $1070 fee. Some folks need to do that.
