Wondering what is our best option......

[Sameh'sHabibi 3]

Salaam Everyone! Just wanted to throw a question out to get some opinions. My fiance lives in Egypt. He has been saving money and planning for years to travel overseas to finish his Masters Degree, even before we met. He had his choices (now that he is finally ready to pay for it all!) narrowed down to France, UK, or USA. Because I am here in the US, he would really like to just come study here to make it easier on all parties involved. He would be here about 2 or maybe 3 years, then we plan to relocate permanently back to Cairo. Do we even need to bother with all the K1 or CR1 mess (because it IS a mess! I have been watching so many people in their long and frustrating journeys!) since he doesn't need/want a green card? Is just doing a student visa his best bet? Also, does the fact that he is engaged to a USC blow his chances of getting a student visa anyways? What do y'all think about the situation?

Student is the best thing. If you want to get Married later on then you can and do an Aos. If he decides to stay.

Student would be best, but i would not offer the information he has a fiance in the U.S.A. or they will think you are using the student visa as a easy way to get him a greencard. And he would be denied.

I don't think he wants to be a us citizen. They want to go back to egypt, their home country. I think that's smart, there is a lot of good an educated man/woman can do over there.

He does want to go back to Egypt, and soon. I can't wait to move there. I have completely fallen in love with Cairo. I don't even begin to know where to start as far as finding work there, though. Everyone tells me I need to arrange that beforehand so my salary is better and in USD. Where would I start? I am a critical care/ cardiac nurse BTW.

I don't think you would have a hard time finding a job there, with your credentials. Do you speak aribic? I would also try and find a egyption community in your area, great place to network and they might know a few doctors back home, and then in no time you have a job.
