Post by: Payton on December 27, 2004, 05:00:00 AM
How long does it take to get a girl over on a K-1 visa?  Is this like a year long process?

Depends on your service center.Go to the USCIS website.Add about 4 months to the time frame for application approval.

Much of it depends on the service center you go through. I read of one guy whose fiance petition was approved in Vermont after 3 weeks. When you add on the NVC processing and the embassy process, his novia could be with him in another 3-4 months. My own process with my wife back in late 2003 took 6 months start to finish.

Some may exaggerate and say longer.  But, I'd wager less than half that time--if you're careful and thorough.

Check out www.visajourney.com

They have LOADS of info. on time lines.  And the forums are flush with people engaged in the K-1/K-3/CR-1 visa process from around the world.

Out.
