A work permit is called an EAD. You can apply for an EAD as soon as you enter BUT it will only be good until the 90 days from your arrival and since it takes 60-90 days to get the card it is pointless

That dose not apply to k1 visas but to spousal visas your interview will be booked via your embassy not NVC.

I will start calling the NVC this week. Is there anything specific I need to say when calling other than "I'm calling to see if it's arrived there yet and for a case#"?

Good morning,

Is it just me or does it seem that the USCIS is sending the cases faster to the NVC? I have been watching timelines and it looks like 2-3 weeks rather than 4-6. I hope they keep up with this rate. Also praying for more approvals this week for the May cases, that means it's getting closer to mine.

Good luck everyone in our journey

Lockbox received- June 16

not even 1 approval for today:( :( I am about to cry:(

You guys can correct me if I am wrong, but my understanding is that the notifications do not come out for approvals until after the office has closed. I think it is usually around 9:30pm central time, so we still have just under 5 hours to wait. I am sure there will be some lucky May filers tonight :)
