Time from entry on K1 to work permit ?

[Rayann 1]

I am looking for information on how long it will be before I can work when I enter the country with my K1... any data out there?

Thanks!

Depends on when you file for AOS. The EAD is usually 60-90 days after the AOS is received.

So the sooner you get married and the sooner you file AOS the sooner you get the work permit.

Agreed with Belinda, it is averaged at 60-90 days. Here's VJ stats based on completed EAD timelines: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/eadstats.php?cfl=

For me, my EAD was approved in 71 days after filing with AOS, and finally received my EAD/AP card on the 80th day.
