None. K1 is for engaged couples. Cr1 is for married people. There is no girlfriend /boyfriend visa. 

 

Also you'll know the difference if you check the guides. 

K1

29.11.2013 - NoA1

06.02.2014 - NoA2

01.04.2014 - Interview. 

AoS

03.2015 - AoS started.

09.2015 - Green Card received.  

RoC

24.07.2017 - NoA1.

01.08.2018 - RoC approved.

That would depend on whether you were planning on getting engaged, or planning on getting married.

Other than that, she's just your girlfriend...there's nothing you can "do".

 

If you are not engaged, and you are not married to her, then you can apply for a tourist visa to visit her for a short period and return to India afterwards.

***** Moving from NVC to What Visa do I Need? forum ******

 

Your profile says you have an F1 student visa, are you currently in the USA?  if so, no visa is needed, you need to adjust status instead.

If you are abroad, then both the K1 and the CR-1 are possibilities, and you need to decide based on your personal circumstances.  For example, if you want your family at the wedding, the CR-1 and getting married in India is probably better so they can all witness the wedding.

No one can tell you what to do.  That is a decision to be made between you and your girlfriend.  I suggest you both review the guides here and decide what visa path would work best for your individual circumstance.

 

You can start here by comparing the different visa options:http://www.visajourney.com/content/compare

 

Are you currently here on a student visa as your profile states?
