Is the US citizen going to join Visa Journey?

hahaha... That's funny how people insist. But on a serious note, you are right!  She may benefit if she does.  Even I benefit from other people's opinions on  Visajourney and I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable with the process.  

 

I told her to join.  I told her that this group insist too.  It is up to her at this point.

For us the limbo of the adjustment of status process turned out to be more of an issue than the cost. Just a personal data point from someone who feels that the CR-1/IR-1 is the far superior option in most cases.

the OP posts could not be answered except by perosnal opinion or what we have seen but no one here can answer OP question with absolute certainity

Both the US citizen and the foreign fiance/immigrant should be here for this conversation.

I made sure that they are fully aware of this conversation.  If they end up here or not, that would be completely up to them.

What's an OP post / OP question?

Distinctly possible a K1 as described would be returned to USCIS.

It is quicker especially these days.  All you have to do is take a look at the most recent applications and how they get their NOA2 in less than 4 months at times for the K1 process.

Notice of Action doesn’t mean approval. Also, it’s important to look at cases at the home consulate where the petition would be adjudicated.

I never said it was or meant approval.  I am just saying a year ago, it used to take double that time get an NOA2, while today it only takes 4 months for some people.  Some people even less... It means no approval, but at least that step makes it a lot faster.

Approvals are taking nearly as long as CR-1/IR-1's.  Approvals are what one should be concerned with.
