Thank you all so much for the responses. I guess we may need to think about Utah zoom marriage. Honestly, we didn't have any idea such a thing is possible. Maybe that's gonna be better for us. Thank you again.

Thank you so much for the responses but getting married in this situation is not practically possible for us at this moment. In this case, we believe our chance with K1 visa would be better. Under this circumstances, do you have any recommendations? That'd be really helpful. Thank you so much again for all responses.

My fiancée and I applied for the K1 visa in October 2022. We received the NOA2 in November 2023 and completed the process in February 2024. Our K1 visa was approved in February 2024, and I traveled to the US on February 28th, staying for 2 weeks. The transition to living together suddenly, after a 3-year long-distance relationship, was quite a shock for both of us. We found ourselves overemphasizing some easily solvable problems. Realizing the need to address these issues and give ourselves time, I returned from the US on March 13, 2024. Since my return to my home country, we have been consistently communicating and spending time together. We've come to the understanding that our decision was rushed, and with a calmer approach, we could have begun resolving our issues. At the request of my fiancée, we reached out to the US consulate in my country to revalidate the same K1 visa. Unfortunately, they responded negatively, instructing us to fill out a new I-129F. Despite these setbacks, our love for each other remains strong. We've endured long and exhausting relationships and past events, ultimately finding each other. Our desire to be together persists. Thus, we've resolved to reapply for the K1 visa. We are prepared to wait for 9 months to a year, during which time we will focus on strengthening our relationship. Now, I have some questions: Given that it hasn't been 2 years since our first K1 visa, we understand we need to request a waiver. Do you think we stand a chance of obtaining this waiver if we simply explain our situation, or will we face denial after 9 months? If we decide to reapply, would it be logical or necessary to wait for my fiancée to visit me in my home country again? During this visit, we could take new photos to add to our application, demonstrating that our relationship continues unchanged. However, this would entail a delay of 2 months, as my fiancée cannot take leave from work during this time. Your responses are incredibly valuable to us. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
