My fiancé and I have started the process of gathering documents for the K1 visa. The amount of paperwork is overwhelming, but we’re managing. I often see questions on the forum asking why we didn’t choose the spousal visa. Even my friend asked me the same question. For us, the key factor is time, not finances. The separation is hard, and the number of things to handle can be overwhelming.
I have a question for those who have been in a similar situation. I live in Europe, I have a job and a home here, but I don’t have any family or parents. From your experience, is it better to enter the U.S. on a tourist visa, get married, and apply for adjustment of status (AOS), or should I be patient, take care of my mental health, and continue pursuing the K1 visa process?
I’d greatly appreciate any advice or insights.
