I'm applying for the K-1 visa with my fiancee Onelis. Once she comes here to the USA from Colombia, how long will it take before we can travel in Baja, Mexico - my favorite place away from home? Some guys on the BajaNomad.com site told me 5+ years, but I know it can't be that long. However long it takes, but I get the Baja bug quite frequently, and fish tacos here in Southern CA don't taste the same. :crying:

In my free time, I lead group tours into Baja, Mexico - I even sell t-shirts for the events that read like concert tours. Here's a little background into my madness...

90 days is no sweat. That will be great to travel to Baja and back to Colombia to see friends & familia. :thumbs:

That is in the neighborhood of 90 days after you apply for Advance Parole which occurs AFTER you are married...

When you apply for her AOS you should also send her I-765 for her EAD and I-131 for her Advance Parole which will let her come back to the States if she travels while her AOS is approved. The $1,010 fee covers the processing of all three forms so it's a good idead to send them all at once. She should be getting her EAD and AP approved within 3-6 months.
