Just wondering guys, my soon to be wife is from the Philippines, but lives in Malaysia. Will I be taking out of Malaysia or her country looking at uscis point of view? Second, if it is fact I will be taking her from the country of Malaysia, is it quicker than say some other countries???

In Love with Rosela......

Process is the same for ALL Countries.

This just isn't true. Process on the USA side of things is the same for MOST countries. But once it is sent to the consulate, there can be BIG differences from country to country.

You can only petition her through Malaysia if she is a resident there. If she came on a tourist visa, or has done nothing to establish her residency there, then you'll have to petition her through the Philippines. Its not uncommon for Filipinos to go to other countries on tourist visas and start working. Usually doing so does not give them residency status in the country, but no one has chased them down to send them back home. You're probably going to want to ask her a few questions on her legal status in Malaysia, and query others going through the process from there. The USA side is all the same, but each country has particulars on the process and the time frame.
