I wasnt planning on entering through JFK, but i have heard that if you enter through JFK in New York, they always give you the EAD work permit stamp? is this true? or are there any forms you can fill prior to arrival so that you can have the EAD upon arrival on the K1

Thanks

Definitively, no. If you want immediate EAD you must enter through JFK and get the EAD stamp. Make sure to ask for it or insist on it if necessary. If working right away is that important to you and you can actually work right away if legal, then it is worth it to arrange your entry through JFK making sure not to travel through any foreign airport Dublin for example) where you would clear US Customs before your JFK arrival.

You clear Immigration at ports outside the US, not customs.

Not picking, just clarifying.
