K3 visa question
Hello,
My husband is applying for a k3 visa and I-130. (I am USC and we were married in the UK) Am I right in thinking we can travel to the US once the k3 visa is approved? If so, will he be able to work in the US? Also, our children are USCs, do I need to file any paperwork for them?
Thanks in advance,
Tina

I did not know about DCF. I'll look into it!

Re: K3 visa question
Tina,
Your husband does not apply for I-130 - you do.
If your husband enters the USA using a K3 visa he will be able to work after he obtains both employment authorization from the USCIS and a social security card from the SSA.
