My Fiancee and I have filed for a K-1 Visa through the California Service Center, we filed about a month ago so fingers crossed it will be sorted within 2 months.
Now the problem is I have company ready to make a job offer, and was not aware that to get an EAD you would have to file AFTER the visa comes through, and then wait up to 90 days for that to come through. Or get married immediately and then file and wait the 90 days again.
I was under the impression (my fiancee read somewhere) that after the notice of approval, I would go to the US Embassy in London (where I'm from), and receive my visa along with an EAD.
Is this totally wrong? Am I going to have to wait for the visa to come through and then wait for the EAD?
Also, if the company would like to offer me sponsorship to work, would this affect my K-1 visa?
