Hi

Once your fiance/fiancee gets the K1 visa, enters the US etc. when can he/she return back to their home country to visit? Must they wait until they get issued their green card?

We actually want to have our big celebration in his country, but will do a very simple service here in the US first (within the 90 days), then do the formal wedding probably a year after being in the US.

Once you have your greencard or advanced parole you can leave the US. Advanced parole takes around 3 months.
