My fiancé just approved for the visa . I want to know if their is anything I can start filling out now to get a head start on an adjustment of status ? Or do I have to wait until he enters and after we get married before any paperwork is filled out? Im just trying to be proactive and not wait around . Also how long does it normally take to get a work authorization before my fiancé can start work? He is wanting to start ASAP and I know it can be a few months . Any way to speed up the process ?

You can start to fill out things. . .  but honestly forms are being changed every now and then.  I would wait until getting married while you are waiting for the marriage certificate filing.

3 to 6 months after getting the AOS NOA.   It can be expedited with a job offer and economic need.

Honestly, I had the forms for Anastasia's AOS almost completely filled out (save for a few things I didn't know or that weren't sure until they happened) before she got here.

Though that did mean I ended up having to recopy things because a new edition of one of the forms came out between when I set things up and when we filed.

 

Still, as soon as we had our marriage certificate in hand, we were pretty much ready to file.
