Hello,

We got approvals both for K-3 and CR1 on the December 2nd. I am wondering if we go with K-3 how long will it take me to get the visa? Please help. We need to decide which one we should go with.. Many many thanks...

Please fill in your timeline.

After approval, NVC forwards your case to the embassy who sends packet 3 and then your spouse fills them and returns them to the embassy, who then issues the interview date and sends packet 4

Thank you so much! Which one did you go with? K-3??? I think we'll go with K-3.. I was very confused about that before, but I talked to my husband and we both just want to be together ASAP! Let's say even if there is only one month difference between K-3 and CR1.. It's ok.. I miss him so much.. I don't want to wait a few more months to be there. It will be one year on the January 13th since we got married.. I can complete the process when i get there. I won't work a few months anyway.. I'll enjoy the first months of our marriage life, take care of him :), organize our home, meet his family and friends.. have vacation together.. then I'll look for a job.. YAY!! I am getting more excited.. Thanks to everyone for help and support.. I wish you all get together with your spouses sooner than the usual time :)
