Good morning people.

Im the beneficiary of the k1 visa, I am Italian and my fiancèe of course is from US. I am going to the US on the 28th of December. Arriving in Chicago directly from Europe so that will be my POE. We were thinking about getting a domestic flight to go to Florida to get married in February.

Will it be a problem?

Should I apply for a SSN in Chicago after I arrive?

Where will I need to do all the documents?

Any suggestion will be highly appreciated!

Have a good Sunday!

You can travel anywhere within the US once you have entered with the K-1.

Get the SSN now. As long as there is at least 2 weeks left on the I-94. http://www.visajourney.com/content/ssn If you do not have enough time left on the I-94, then you get the SSN after you receive your EAD, which you will file for at the same time as AOS.

You can file for AOS as soon as you have all the required documents such as a copy of your certified marriage certificate that you get from the court after your marriage is registered. AOS Guide > http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1k3aos

~ Moved from K-1 Process to AOS from Family Based Visas - topic is AOS, not K-1 ~
