拿到工作證以前 - 移民

Table of Contents




若用K1簽證入境美國,一個月內辦理結婚與AOS,

但由於EAD/綠卡需2-3個月才能拿到,

若在申請AOS前後這段期間在美國工作(當家教、兼職etc.),

之後還能順利完成移民程序嗎?


因為資料顯示這算是unauthorized employment,符合下列情形:

Section 245(c)(2) of the Act bars from adjustment an

alien who “continues in or accepts unauthorized employment

prior to the filing of an application for adjustment of status…”

Section 245(c)(8) further bars “any alien who was employed

while the alien was an unauthorized alien, as defined in

section 274A(h)(3), or who has otherwise violated the terms

of a nonimmigrant visa.”

但USCIS似乎會原諒180天以內的unauthorized employment,如下:

Unauthorized employment begins when an alien accepts employment

without Service authorization or continues to work after their

existing authorization expires. Unauthorized employment

ends upon the alien being granted authorization or the

employment is terminated.

For any periods in which USCIS determines the alien

engaged in unauthorized employment, the alien bears the burden

of establishing that such periods were authorized,

or that he or she did not, in fact, engage in unauthorized

employment. Again, as per section 245(k) of the Act,

periods of unauthorized employment totaling 180 days or less may be forgiven.

想確認K1簽證入境轉AOS是否適用180天unauthorized employment條款,謝謝!

245(k)只適用於職業移民,k1不適用

所以你的例子不適合違法工作,下場不會太好
如果你急著要工作,一入境就可以送出K-1的I-765,不必結完婚

一切順利的話,入境後約2個月就拿到這份EAD
不過這份EAD效期只會到K-1效期為止,也就是說實際不到1個月

但你可以在結婚後再送出I-485的EAD;拿到新EAD就可以再工作

總之,安排得好,可以無縫接軌;多花$380讓你可多工作約1個月
絕多數人覺得不值得,所以不申請K-1的EAD;只申請485的EAD
