K-3 has less processing at NVC, and can be applied for while the I-130 for CR-1 is still being processed by USCIS. So K-3 is the quicker of the 2 spousal visas.

K-3 has the disadvantage of having to later adjust status, and having to wait for EAD or Green-card in order to get a job, SSN or driver's license.

Also Please use a normal font next time, your post looks like you are shouting.

In addition to YuAnd Dan's advise you can also check out the regional forum (Middle East and North Africa) here on VJ, lots of people with similar questions and cases that will be able to help you out.

Also, IR1 visas are only issued after a couple is married two years. Here's hoping you're not still needing a visa two years after your marriage.
