No, one-entry visa and expires once you enter.

If you want to go home for a visit, enter, get married, file AOS right away and wait 2-3 months to receive Advance Parole - with that you can re-enter the US while AOS is ongoing. Anything other than this process gets your AOS cancelled and you have to start from scratch with CR-1 visa.

Single entry only. Must get married within 90 days and can leave at any time but can only return to the US if you first obtain the AP or the GC part of AOS. Read the Guides.

The K-1 visa is not a multiple entry visa. Only 1.

If you'd like to come back home after a few weeks/months, you might want to apply for Advance Parole (AP) asap after your wedding. The AP allows you to reenter the U.S. before receiving your Green Card.

For more information see http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1k3aos and http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/235331-aos-ead-ap-from-k1-the-aussie-way-doc-list-included/

Good luck! :thumbs:

You can leave the US anytime you want. Reentry is another matter, and you'll want advanced parole (refer to the guides and AP) to do so.
