K-1 for a reconciled ex-spouse

[J&LJ 0]

I'm preparing to start an immigration packet for an ex-spouse who had an IV packet pending at the NVC prior to. The IV packet was cancelled after divorce. We reconciled about 7 months after the fact. Trying to see if anyone had similar experiences, and which routes were taken: remarry to a K-3/CR-1 visa or eligible for a K-1 since you're legally divorced then reconciled, legally able to remarry?

Thanks for any input.

For all intense and purpose the K3 is pretty much dead and the CR1 is good but requires you to remarry. You can do a K1 again as you said you were legally divorced but you may have more scrutiny this time around. CR1 there is not much of a chance to be declined. Good luck with your decision.

Speed of processing is more of a priority than visa type based on current situation. Was only thinking K-1 based on the shorter average processing times. Is that still the case with recent filings?
