she may actually wait longer much than 3 mos. before she applies for her visa... In the meantime, there is no reason for the USC to wait to file the requisite petitions to determine visa eligibility... Do it as soon as all the required evidence is at hand...

YMMV

As a K1 related question, your post makes no sense. K1 is a fiance(e) visa so is definitely applied for, issued and used BEFORE any wedding.

You may file the I-130 as soon as you have all the required documents. Perhaps the marriage certificate takes a while to obtain???

????

You can file the I130/I129F petitions for the K3 immediately after you get your documents together. It will likely be much longer than 3 months before the visa application can be done.

 

i don't get it.

Trisha and I were able to obtain the marriage certificate (non-NSO one) immediately after the wedding. We then filed two days later. That gives us time to get the NSO Cert which is needed for the embassy. We have ordered that on-line through e-census and just got the NSO copy this weekend.

Love forever,

Dale & Trisha
