Hi Everyone,

Good luck on your immigration journey. What an interesting message thread, indeed. In answer to the question, my vote is:

"Other": A B2 Visitor's Visa

We then got married, filed for an AOS (Adjustment of Status)/I-130 and then I got my Green Card shortly afterwards.

Hey, who knew that a short visit to the USA would turn into a lifetime of living here? Lol...I guess the spontaneous and untraditional route worked for us. However, for everyone else, no matter what the situation, I would recommend hiring an immigration lawyer (which we did too)....

Ant

See I knew there were "other" out there

The correct answer here would be 'none - he is a US citizen and as such doesn't need one'... but I hope I'm allowed to answer for myself (the non-USC), in which case - K1!

K1 as per my timeline

good poll
kath

K-1.

K-1 from mailing to visa in hand 51/2 months.

We used the Cr1 visa..

we had applied for the K3 visa too but our lawyer totally screwed it up so we ended up waiting for the CR1 visa... which is probably the better visa of the two anyways....

We are going the K1 route.

K-1... being separated was bad enough.. but being married and separated was more than we wanted to deal with...

CR-1 and feeling very fortunate it has made our lives so much easier, now just waiting to get her 10-year green card.

K-1

Wow 63% did the K-1

we filed K-3 ..but the G-Dubyament scrapped the K-3 and CR1 on our azz. so
we are getting the IR1.

K1 for us too... wow, lots of K1s here!

Other - we met whilst I was on a C1/D, but married from the VWP.

Savanphil,

Point of clarification - CR1 and IR1 are not different types of visa, they are the same visa.

Yodrak

ir1...instant green card.....10 months start to finish

K-3 visa although we did consider just going for the I-130 along the way.

K-1 for us!

IR-1 via DCF in London

...but I did a K-1 back in 1999, went through the whole AOS process, got my green card, then moved back to the UK for 7 years and am now starting all over again

IR-1.

We thought about K-1, but it just didn't seem like the right move at the time. Now I see I was about 79% correct.

IR-1

We are applying for a K1 visa.

K-1

We chose K1 cause we couldn't stand not to be with each others arms for too long..
