I was sharing life with my fiance for several months ( in fact I spent last two years in Venezuela , living there) , I got an offer for a job in Miami and I took it ! Came back to the US in april, so I decide to start the K1 visa application ( Sended it may 12, got NO1 may 18) , Can anybody tell me if maybe getting married in Venezuela and applying for I130, could be a better option, so now I have been waiting several months here and this is driving me crazy! Does anybody have an answer for me?

Do you believe that I'll have any kind of problem with my actual application? , so I have proof of everything !!! and really I'm missing her a lot ! God !

Do you think that I can do anything to expedite my process ?

thanks a lot!

If you want to expedite the process then the last thing you want to do is get married now. You'd have to withdraw the fiancee visa petition and refile a spousal visa petition, which means starting over. The spousal visa process is no faster than the fiancee visa, and often is a little longer.

If you sent in the k1 back in may you're coming upon 3 months, so in a few weeks you should get the noa2 or an rfe. if you were to go back and get married it will actually make the process longer because you're going to have to file the I130 which is a wait also.

don't worry you're pretty much at the 3 month mark you should hear from the uscis soon.

Do you believe that I'll have any kind of problem with my actual application? if you meet the minimum to file the k1 you shouldn't. like, you met in the last 2 years, you or finace doesn't have any types of criminal convictions, income requirement.

look at all the sample forms in vj if you sent everything in according you shouldn't have any problems. like the k1 application completely filed out no blank spaces, 2 letters of intent, 2 form 325a, 2 passort type pictures(1 of each of you and fiance) , etc.

Do you think that I can do anything to expedite my process ? no it's highly unlikely, but the good news is you're already 3 months in so you don't have long to go

good luck
