Ok so I was reading more. I thought I had my mind made up but I have changed once again. My question is when someone comes to the US with a CR-1 are they able to go to there home country right away? If not how long do they have to wait? I was leaning toward the

K-3 because I thought with that he would be able to go back to his country right away. Please set me straight.

Thanks in Advance

If you enter on a CR-1 visa you will get a stamp, an I-551. That acts as your temporary green card for 1 year. That stamp is valid for travel and work purposes. So yes, you can travel right away. You must be careful to not be out of the country for so long that you lose resident status though.
