My Korean fiancé received her K1 visa today from the Seoul Embassy. We started the process in March 5, 2015 and did everything ourselves.

We could have completed the entire K1 visa process in about 3 months but my fiancé wanted to spend and extra month visiting me in the US before she returned to Korea for her interview.

The interview with smoothly and lasted less than 5 minutes.
