I know absolutely nothing about visas

[Ben Brackett 0]

I live in Bucharest with my wife, she is Romanian, I'm American. we were married on the 20th of September and we both live here as of now.

we mailed in our I-130 a couple weeks ago. I'm just a little bit confused about the whole process. Whats a K-3 visa? We got something in the mail saying they recieved out paperwork and now they are processing it. What do I do after they accept the I-130? What are the steps? How long do you think it will take before we are on a flight to America? What can I do to speed up the process or what should I have ready next so as soon as they mail me the acceptance of the I-130, and can mail them the second part? Any advice would be appreciated.

You've come to the right place. Start by clicking on the work "Guides" at the top of any page. You're looking at approximately 8 to 12 months from petition receipt to visa. The guides will explain the K3 visa but things have changed enough in the past year or so to minimize any potential time savings and maximize the additional cost. I don't recommend K3 except in some exceptional situations.

Hello Ben, start with the Guides here at Visa Journey, they will explain the differences of a K3 and a CR-1 Visa.

But if you now live in Bucharest, maybe you qualify for Direct Consula filing. Check the emabassy website here on VJ if Bucharest has DCF. That is faster then the traditional way of filing. But you have to meet certain requirments first to file DCF.

Good luck.

The guides are a very good start. If you have questions afterwards by all means post them. Good luck
