  1. Wow.. I live just a couple hours away near Austin and didn't even know these checkpoints existed until now.
  2. Was about to send my I-485 and did the same as you. Glad you posted this so I could get mine fixed before sending it.
  3. This was the article that I was referring to that I had found just trying to do research several places that had stuck in my mind (that is apparently invalid): https://www.fickeymartinezlaw.com/immigration/k-1-fiance-visa/how-can-a-k1-visa-holder-get-a-us-social-security-card It said the following: "Specifically for K-1s, the best time to apply is about 2 weeks after entry into the US as this would allow the government “SAVE” system to be up-to-date at your SSA Visit."
  4. Thank you for that information. Everywhere has posted to wait 10 days to go to the SSA office, so that's good news to me. We're not planning to go to France to live and I don't need to open any accounts in her country.
  5. I read a blog about applying for a Family Book and getting the marriage recognized in France (the banns), but she says we aren't going to go live in France so didn't see the point in going through that process.
  6. Nevermind, I literally found another thread asking the same. Seems everyone's suggestion is to get the SSN first.
  7. My fiancee is planning to come to the US on her K1 Visa, November 20, 2023, to Texas. My plan is to go to request a marriage license before the Thanksgiving holiday closes the offices and schedule marriage at the courthouse early December. My thoughts are that we can wait to apply for a SSN after the wedding so that she can change her last name at the same time without having to go back to the SSN to do a name change. By early December, that should be enough time for her to be in the "SAVE" system (I think it's called). Does anyone see any potential problems with this logic? Thank you.
