  1. I have decided to DIY the process. I appreciate the help. I was already looking at the S&Y youtube channel that was recommended here. I will research the process starting this weekend looking mostly to this forum and that channel.
  2. Hello. I plan to file for a fiance visa soon. I heard about this site while researching. I am on the fence about DIY vs a cheap service, say $800 or less. I have read that there is a downward trend in the amount of time needed to complete the process. This gives me concerns that it might be less of a waiting game for new apps than it has been in the past for DIYers, and more of a scramble to get all the stuff in time if you submit the first step too early. To contrast that perceived extra rush I think my case maybe very simple. So I'm a bit on the fence about which way to go and I thought I'd ask this forum to help me decide. I realize you guys lean toward DIY. I decided to try to meet someone over seas through dateinasia. I had conversations with a few women and then took an interest in Jessel. She was seeking work abroad through an employment agency when we met because she felt it would be a better way to help her family than getting a job in the Philippines. I didn't like the idea of pursuing someone that was a maid to a random rich guy in Asia so I had to help her or not pursue her. She didn't tell me that, I chose that and had to convince her it was not shameful for two partners to help each other. So we began a LDR with video calls every day, me working alot, and sending 300 a month to help the household out. I have continued that contact and support for 15 months now. I got to go stay with her and her family for two weeks recently. Everything went well and I want to start the visa process ASAP. I am a US citizen. I divorced right around the time I met Jessel but i had been separated for almost a year at that point. She and I are roughly the same age. Evidence of the trip and our relationship based on love that we have will be alot of pics on facebook with me, her and her family hanging out for a few weeks, a long messenger thread of us talking for over a year, pics of us getting matching tattoos, western union log of support payments, and my flight itinerary(but not tickets/BP stub, except one for a return flight). I believe we will both do fine on the medical / police stuff but I haven't started it yet. I believe I make enough and can include in my letter that I can probably find her a job inside the group of restaurants I work for. Should I just research everything to DIY and start compiling everything right away? ( police clearance, vaccinations, physical } Should I use a service like SC, boundless or greencardhero? Thanks for the time and any advice you can give.
