Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to ask your opinion about my situation,

I was a K1 holder when I entered the US last year. I got married with in the 90 days. Stayed the US for almost 5 months then went home (Philippines) with out filing AOS. My husband wants me to travel back to the US, so he is planning to file a K3. I am married to a US Citizen, I already have my SSN and I am included in his ITR already. My questions are, would there be any problem if my hubby filed for a K3?or CR1 is still the fastest? He already called the USCIS and the person whom he talked to, told him that K3 is the right petition to be filed so my husband will be submitting the documents next week.Thank you.

Cr1 is the superior visa. You get a green card upon arrival to the USA and you dont have to file AOS.

They take about the same amount of time and the K3 costs twice as much.

Our attorney told us that K-3 has pretty much become obsolete at this point. It used to be a faster way but it no longer is. CR1 might be the better bet.
