Well I found out that I may have orders for Germany. Which means If I have to go I have to go next year sometime around the middle to end of the year. How fast is the process to get her a passport so she can travel easily with me? What is the fasted route to take? IM reading up on what I have to do when she gets here and we get married.

if you mean other than a K1 process, she can apply for a (risky) tourist visa but w/no guarantee she'll be approved, especially if USEM sees that she already has a K1 application in process

as far as passport, she has to one asap for her K1 visa application.

seeing that the embassy already has your case, once you receive the official notice that your fiancee can already schedule for interview/medical exam, have her so do.

the medical takes 2 days, and should be done at least 2 weeks before the interview.

if she passes the medical and interview, visa delivery usually takes a week or sooner if she request the consul officer to allow her to pick it up herself (case-to-case basis)

in total, this could take just a month or two. then you can fly her to the US marry the soonest possible time after she arrives (some couples marry w/in a week of fiancee's arrival) then apply for AOS right away. the AOS takes some 4 (very rare) to 6 months (average) to a year/s. but if you're lucky and it gets approved w/in 6 months, she can already fly w/you (provided she meets the visa requirements of germany for an LPR)

if you leave by end of next year, hopefully you'll get things ready.

good luck and god bless!

Maybe I should have explained better, she has already been approved for K1 and will be here this month. Sh we will be together from this month until I have to report to Germany, and I definetely want her to go with me to Germany.

Only US Citizens get US Passports.

She will use her Greencard and PH Passport for re-entry to the US. Not sure about her requirements to enter Germany.

I would recommend you utilize the resources that the military makes available to you contact the JAG office and speak to a lawyer.

I'm the wife of an American Soldier;

I'm the hope that lives within him after storm clouded days.

The freedom from war that gives wings to his heart,

May they reach across the miles and bind our hearts together

against all that we must face in this world.
