I’m tour operator and own a company in here + 3 vehicles on my name you think that will be enough to prove ties to my country? 

 

You could try for a tourist visa, but no one can really tell you if your ties will be strong enough. That will be determined by the CO who interviews you. Your only risk is losing the $160 application fee. If it does happen to be denied, it shouldn't have any effect on your current K3 (CR1) petition.

That is more than some people have, but having a wife who is expecting inside the US as well as already having demonstrated immigrant intent will be BIG factors also.

As long as he is truthful in the tourist visa interview then he would have no problem for the K3/CR1 visa interview at all. A lot of people that end up being denied for a tourist visa go on to have no problems in a K1/CR1 visa interview AS LONG AS THEY ARE TRUTHFUL AND DON'T LIE.

What's happening to those things when you get your CR-1?

Seems odd, she has no support, family or work and he has his own business.

If it was that easy, all the couples would  be getting pregnant in order to expedite the long process.

What? No way! I'm not changing my body and lifestyle permanently just to be with my husband faster. Not everyone wants children and many people do want them but also want to wait.

Why is that odd?

Why doesn't she live in Morocco with her husband and give birth there? The child/wife would not be separated. Why is she living in the US if she has no ties and her spouse can support her in Morocco?

Is that up to us to judge? Is that the question the OP is asking advice about?

 

We don't know the circumstances nor the background of both the OP and his wife.

OP asked about being together quicker due to wife's pregnancy.

Hello everyone, I’m a Moroccan married to US wife and already we did apply for a K3 visa on early November 2017 that I can join my wife, we discovered on late November that she is pregnant and she is now 3 months of pregnancy. I’m asking if there is any exception or a path we should follow in order to faster the process as my wife now getting enable to work and needs my support physically and financially. 

 

All your responses & tips are appreciated! 

Youness.

Although, I don t think you decided to become pregnant for an expedite, some have tried it before and failed. 

To answer your question, you can not receive a speedy process due to pregnancy.

However, I recommend you fly your wife back to Morocco as soon as possible; 

There, you can support her "physically and financially". You say:  "as my wife now getting enable to work and needs my support physically and financially" You two can live together and wait until your CR1 is approved. BTW, K3 no longer exist, or have morphed to something else.

Also, you must begin thinking about how your Visa will be approved with your wife/petitioner can t support you.

Best  of luck to you, your wife and may you have a healthy and happy baby soon nshlah.

As others have already stated, there is no expedite for pregnancy. You're looking at a 12-14 month wait for the CR1 visa to process (since as already stated, most K3s are converted to this).

 

You can try to apply for a tourist visa, but unless you have very strong ties to Morocco (stable job, owning property, ect), it will be difficult to convince the CO that you will return to Morocco, especially if you have a USC wife and child. But it's still worth applying for it if you are determined. 

It might be a waste of time, money and effort to apply for a tourist Visa. He will chance not making it by the baby's birth; Casa Consulate is not the fastest. Furthermore, and only IMO, his ties to Morocco are not strong. I doubt he ll be granted a visiting Visa. Best idea is to bring her to live with him until he receives his immigrant Visa.

what i am about to say is hard to hear 

I am sure (after being in Morocco to witness a birth) that this girl does not want to deliver there 

 

anyway,  you will not get a tourist visa to visit from Morocco to your wife as they know you are married and immigration will assume you intend to stay in USA and AOS to remain here and tourist visas for Moroccans are difficult to begin with

 

your interview will be in about (hopefully) 14 months 

your wife will need several visits to get this CR1 visa approved so maybe she can bring the new baby to see you / she needs to visit you within 2 years of the interview / it would be great if she could be in Morocco for the interview as emotional support although she can not attend the interview / nice to say she is there

 

now, your biggest problem is "as you say, she can not work" 

she needs to show she has 125% of poverty guidelines which for you, a baby and a wife will be $25,975 (3 people) for the year 2017 if you interview before 15th April 2019 /if interview after 15th April will need to show 2018 income

if she can not work, you may need a cosponsor with income to support themselves, their family and your family

 

Good luck as you have a difficult road to visa ahead

Isn't that a very common question on this forum? People are looking into being together rather quick then having to wait for a long time.

 

Answer is usually: no that's not possible, even a pregnancy doesn't make it quicker.
