Why it's easier to have a approvals of K1 Visa than to Cr1 ???

Not necessarily true and it depends on what country? Are you just talking specifically about the Philippines?

For me K1 visa is easier because you still have to adjust status after entering the US which takes like 1 year where if you go for cr1 once you enter US you'll have a greencard in a few weeks.

The logic of the statement I put in bold above makes no sense. How is having to go through the AOS process in order to obtain a green card easier than receiving a green card in the mail a few weeks after arrival? huh.png

Sorry for the confusion. I meant it was easier to get to the US via K1, not that it was easier to get a green card. The reason it's much easier to get a green card via CR1 is because the process for getting to the US takes more time.

So the "easier" I used meant "faster" to get to the US :) Though I know that recently there has only been a few months apart with the 2 visa but for some it still a lot of waiting . :P Hope that clears things up :)

I am talking about the time of waiting and not of the approvals because if you look at it there is no point of asking about the approval for CR1 because majority WOULD BE approved. Like there is no question about it because the CR1 and K1 requirements are practically the same except for some obvious difference such as the marriage certificate for CR1 and the certificate to marry for K1. I just felt that the OP was asking about why there are a lot more K1 approvals in such a short period of time compared to CR1 approvals in the same amount of time. But yes, I am sorry for the confusion :)
