CR1 is 2 months quicker than K1?

mmm you prolly meant '2 months longer' than the K-1, ya?

It can be 1 to 2 months longer than the K-1 - there's some variables in that, though.

Still would go the K1 route.

Why? Not an argument, just a question. It isn't much help to say what you would do without explaining why.

They have a long distance relationship ahead of them.

Planning to get married at the end of it just seems a better bet.

Keep things simple.

It's a personal decision, of course and based on personal priorities. To take the K1 route they must resign themselves to the fact that they may never marry or at least their marriage will either come at the end of a long process or require them to abandon one process and start another, or both.

While Laurel Scott, the Goddess of waivers, often accomplishes the impossible by overcoming 10-year bans with hardship waivers, she clearly stated that a failure to appear in court carries a 5-year waiver that cannot even be overcome by the Allmighty himself.

Thats important info! Is this really true? Does the 5 year for failure to appear in court just make this not possible for that period? Is there a total of 10 years for her being here for 3 years too? What is my best plan to make sure that we can accurately make things right so after the 5 years when we apply we can be sure that we have our bases covered? We have talked over alternate plans alot today after I read this, and if we have to wait 5 years to apply thats fine, we will figure out a way to make it work. Any more information on this point is greatly appreciated!! thank you all for commenting!

First 5 years, not waiverable

Second 5 years, waiverable

10 years plus, no waiver required

And now that she is in Peru is there anything she has to do? Register with a U.S. embassy to say shes back starting whenever, or is the passport stamp enough?

Friend, there are currently 6.8 billion people on this planet. Of those, there are certainly a few beautiful women with Peruvian descent in your age group who would make wonderful spouses for a lifelong time of happiness. Why choosing the most difficult way to the all-important happiness instead of taking a step back, breathing some fresh air, and listen to what the universe is trying to tell you?

I think VD requires you to register your departure. She will have the documentation.

One of the reasons for a K1.

To you there may be 6.8 billion people and beautiful women etc. But there is only one woman, that is my woman, and will be my woman, no matter how hard it is or what we have to do. I havent met 6.8 billion people, but i have met many many many people, and there hasnt been one, even close to be like the woman i am going to spend the rest of my life with. To each his own.
