I am in the US on a K! visa. I submitted my AOS at the end of July. In my home country I worked for the Salvation army and I visited them here in the possiblity they may offer me work. Well they have...

Do I wait for the EAD process to get through the 90 days.. or follow another process?

Advice appreciated.

You have to wait for your EAD to be able to work legally.

There is other process to follow that applying for EAD and subsequent GC - which you already did.

You need the EAD to legally work.

Normally, it takes 2-3 months to get the EAD after applying for it.

If you need your EAD immediately, then you can make an Infopass appointment and ask for an expedite.

Thanks ... I have no intention of working illegally hence wanting to know options.

But its good to know there is a possibility to expedite. The employer was also talking about supporting or sponsoring me.

I have my social security number already.

I am in the midst of painting the house during my 'wait time' ... not actually 100% available yet for work! Rather I am working AT home

Thanks for the input.
