I have a question. When my fiancée arrives on the K1 visa and after marriage, can she go on a cruise to the Bahamas with me (Petitioner)?

Will she be allowed back to the US? If yes, what documents aside from her Colombian passport will she need?

If not, when can she go, after which documents are submitted.

Thanks!

No!

Your Fiancée can only enter the USA ONCE under the K1 Visa. If she leaves the country she will NOT be allowed back in as your Fiancée or your Spouse under any circumstances.

The only way your spouse will be able to leave and re-enter the USA is after filing for Adjustment of Status AND filing for Advanced Parole and ONLY when the Advanced Parole is authorised can she leave the country.

Sorry!

Absolutly! Your fiance can definitly go away with you after you get married!

She however, will not be readmitted back into the US. You will have to file a spousal visa abroad!

Photomile was correct, in order for her to be readmitted back into the US, since the K-1 is single entry, she needs to advanced parole document OR her green card, nothing else will be sufficient

Good luck

Wont be allowed back into the USA - you would have to file for a spousal visa and wait 9 months for her to be allowed back.

- Hope you didn't book anything!

Marry file AOS and wait 3-4 months for AP approval - when you have AP card in your hand you can then go on a cruise.
