New to here !
I went and visited my fiancee in 2012 and 2014 for 3 weeks each time and got engaged in May of 2014.
Stayed at her estate in Cabatuan each time,met family,good relations from one and all.
She is a corporate chef in Dubai and we WERE planning on entering into the K-1 visa in April,but we both forgot that we had to have seen each other in the last two years.SOoooooooo..........now marrying in the Philippines is looking the best.
My question to one and all is this>>>>>>what have you found to be the time ofwaiting IF you married in the Philippines to when she was able to come to America!

Not sure about waiting times lately between fiancée or spousal visas--they vary from year to year, from USCIS service center assigned, etc. I think Visajourney.com would be another good place to get answers. I don't think you should need to involve an attorney, but pictures with her family, any letters, texts, hotels, fight records--really any evidence you've been in some sort of relationship for a while can't hurt.

Nice to see people not rushing into things. Good luck!

Thank you so much for the quick reply.....appreciate it and the contact info. I have went through this process before in 2000-02,but we decided it would not work out and she went home on day 87 on the K-1.

Nice save!! Most people are hellbent on trying to make it work after they've gone that far. With varying results of course.

Hi Tim,

I have done both the K-1 and spouse visa.

I think the marriage in the Philippines with the spouse immigrant visa has many advantages and is much more rewarding.

I waited about 10 months from marriage to her arrival in the States.
