Hello, I have a question,

When k-1 visa holder is applying for application of status does the $1070 include fee for application of employment authorization and advanced parole when filed all together? Also, how does one know where to get a surgeon to sign medical form? Also can the intending immigrant send application without ssn?

Thank you in advance.

The fees for the I-765 and I-131 are waived when filed with a pending I-485. http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=3faf2c1a6855d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCRD&vgnextchannel=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD

The filing fee for an Employment Authorization Document and for Advanced Parole is waived when they are filed together with an I-485.

The price includes EAD and AP

Incorrect, see what I wrote above.

Also, if you have trouble using the USCIS list to find a civil surgeon that will do what you want (like I did), you may find one in this thread - just search for your city:

I called several CSs listed on the USCIS list for my city and they all told me, "We don't do that" when I told them what I needed. So I used the above VJ thread to find a "real" civil surgeon in my area that would complete the forms. I don't know why the others were listed on USCIS's list - they had no idea what to do with immigration paperwork.
