Hi everyone, Hoping someone could tell me if we can file for my wifes EAD (Employement Authorization) before we file for her AOS (Adjustment of Status). I just lost my job (start new job next week :) )so we cant really afford both right now. We dont want to delay her Work Authorization any longer than we have to. Thanks - Gary and Marie

GarynMarie,

In fact, it's an excellent idea for a K3 to apply for EA before they apply for AOS.

Yodrak

Yes as a K3 visa holder you can file for EAD before you file for AOS.....

Good Luck
