K-1/K-2 approved -flight booked {Now what}

[vacrimefighter 10]

Our K-1/K-2 application was approved My fiancee and daughter are leaving the Philippians next week for the United States. Now I have to prepare and educate myself for the rest of the process and application process.

During there flight to the United States they will be given a I-94 form. They will proceed to Customs with their sealed package, I-94 for and passport/visa. {Beneficiary arrives at Point of Entry (POE) in U.S. and shows K-1 to the immigration officer}

Question 1# When do we get her Social Security number we applied for earlier in this process or should we reapply ?

We go to the court house and get the application for marriage and get married within 90 days.

Once married add them to my Insurance policy

Now we go back to the SS office with our marriage certificate for her name change.

Complete I-693 per the K1/K3 AOS Guide. This is required so that your vaccinations can be documented properly on the I-693 as part of your completed AOS package. { WE HAVE HER Vaccination DOCUMENTS FROM HER Physical } do they count for anything

Apply for Adjustment of Status (AOS) So I send I-495, I-765, I-131 and I-751 {all documents at the same time} do they go to the same mailing location ?

I-485 Application fee for K-1 $1070

I-485 Application for K-2 $ 635

I-765 Application for Employment $380

I-131 Application for K-1 no fee when filed with the I-485

I-131 Application for K-2 no fee when filed with the I-485

I-751 Application for K-1 $ 590

I-751 Application for K-2 $ 85 additional biometric fee only when dependent is added on line 5 of wife’s I-751

When do these forms get filled out or do they get sent with the AOS package ?

N-400 Applications for K-1 $680

N-400 Application for K-2 $680 (not until she is 18 years of age)

When you file AOS form I-1485,I-131,I-765 all together will be mailed and no additional fee for the employment fee that is included in 1,070$..wait for 2 weeks when she arrive to get SSN so her name will be on their system...I-751 is for removing condition and that is for 2 years after she received her greencard..goodluck and congratulations on your approval..

the only fee that will be due for AOS will be $1,705.00 that is for the K1 and K2, there is no fee for the EAD or AP if filed together with AOS. Wait 2 weeks and you will be able to get both a SS number in their maden name only, you will have to file the AOS after marriage to get the SS number in the married name.

Once she lands next week - how long does it take to receive her SS numbers - I assume the letter comes in my name ?

Do not write one check for 2 applications, I received an RFE for that. Attach check to each application. Don't worry about the ssi number her name change will be legal with the marriage. Apply the EAD with your I-485 it's free, the EAD will come first before the GC and then get the ssi card so she's legal to work. Yes, put your wife and her daughter on Health insurance, utilities bill, your bank account. your wifes GC fee is $1070 and if her daughter is under 14 years old it's $635. Good luck.
