Okay; No problem. Thank you...

So are you saying that application for a Green Card to change his status from K-1 VISA is $1120.00? And he have to do it right away or can he do it when his K-1 VISA expires?

It costs $1070 to adjust his status and there is no time limit so don't worry. I would just say try to do it when you can afford it just to get it done.

Is it true they can't work until AOS has been completed?

Yes - the foreign spouse at least has to get the EAD (which is filed at the same time as the AOS application) in order to work. Application total for AOS, EAD and AP (travel document) is $1070. No time limit, per se, but you probably want to do it as soon as you can so that your spouse can start to work etc.

Ok thank you so much for that info, how long does it take for the EAD to be approved?

Mine took three months and it seems to be about three months usually.
