I am a US citizen and my fiance lives in the UK. I recently met with an immigration lawyer who discussed both the fiance visa and the marriage visa with us because she said they're taking the same approval time now. It also sounded like the marriage visa was more of a sure thing compared to the fiance visa, costs less money, and then he won't have to wait for the ability to work and get a driver's license, etc. My question is: Which is the better route to go? We have been together 3 years and just want to finally start our life together in the US. He applied for a travel visa and was denied because they stated he doesn't have strong enough ties to return to his home country. I would love any advice or to hear other people's experience! Thank you so much!
