Applying K3 visa outside US

[c0ach 0]

Can we apply K3 visa outside US? So that we don't have to live separately as husband and wife?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

You do not have to be present in the USA to file a petition. However, the petition is submitted to a USCIS service center stateside...

Hi, thank you for your response.

Are you saying, I can initiate the process of applying K3 visa from the US? And I can wait for the K3 visa to be approved in other country?

Or all the process from applying till approval can be done outside the US?

Are you guys living together abroad? If so, you might qualify for a DCF filing. This is much better.

Wow, thank you guys for the information. At this point, we are not living together. But I plan to go abroad so we dont have to live separately when I am filing K3 visa. Just curious if that is one of our option. Thanks again!

Btw, can you elaborate why DCF filing is much better?

DCF is for married couples living abroad. You would first need to see if Indonesia does DCF filing, check the guides and the Embassy info here on VJ

There is also a financial sponsorship requirement before a visa will be issued. If you're living abroad while the petition is being approved, you want to make sure to secure overseas employment and/or have enough assets for sponsorship, or line up a joint-sponsor.

Please read the GUIDES to get a better idea of what your 'options' are.
