If you don’t apply for and receive the I765, you won’t be able to work until the AOS process is completed .. over 12 months.  The EAD application fee is waived when filing it concurrently with the AOS, and is approved much faster than the GC. So there are no reasons why you wouldn’t apply .. and many why you should !  Same goes for the Advanced Parole card I 131 , which will allow you to reenter the US if you leave before the AOS is completed.

Do you have to?  No........Should you?  Absolutely....and also you should file the I-131 as stated above by @Lil bear

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

While the OP should definitely apply for EAD & AP along with AOS as long as it's free to do so (and probably even if it isn't), because you never know what's going to happen in your life (lots of things could cause plans to change regarding work or international travel, and what you think is an emergency USCIS may not think is grounds for expedited EAD or emergency AP) processing times are highly field office dependent.  At some offices you'll normally have GC in hand in significantly less than 12 months; my wife's was less than 7 (and less than 6 to EAD/AP), and while it's not slow, San Diego isn't super-fast, either.

I have so many questions. Please feel free to refer me to any thread or post or copy paste the answer to this post or inbox me.

 

My fiance entered the USA on a K1 Visa on Jan 7th 2020. Our 90days is up on April 1, 2020. We are getting married in the court Jan 17th 2020... with that being said here are my questions:

 

1) The 765 EAD (Working Permit Application Form) does it only allow someone to work within the 90 days of the K1?

 

2) I wanted to file the EAD (I-765) and the AOS (I-485) together. What is the exact address that I send it to and how do I find the list of accompanied fees to pay for each form? If filed together when how long does the EAD last and when will it expire?

 

3) When is my fiance allowed to apply for a SSN and driver's license? Does AOS need to be processed before SSN?
