When buying the tickets over to the US dose my fiancée have to enter the US where I am currently living? Also, when seeing the layovers for flights can she do a layover in the US, such as Miami and with destination Houston? 

 

Thanks!!

You'll probably want to see what you can find out about the immigration lines at the airport your fiancee will be connecting through (not too long ago I saw a report of the immigration line wait times at various airports linked here). I don't think I'd want to risk less than 3 hours without confirmation from the airline that if she were delayed due to immigration they'd re-book your fiancee on a later flight, though.

Adding to what @DaveAndAnastasia said. Here is a link to POE reviews.

IN REGARDS TO WHICH DATE TO USE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

noa1 date is actually they date on ur hard copy. Sadly if u reach the magical 220 day u must wait till 225 to contact Uscis. They use what the new site says. Even if ur paper says X date. 

They added 5 days onto everyone’s accepted on NOA1
