Hi There,

 

Me and My fiance would plan married. I have been apply Visa tourist for the first time come to USA.

However, I got rejected twice. Its made me sad, even though just for holiday.

We would try apply fiance visa, but my bf said its takes time, so he would move to Bali. 

my question is, how's to process the document after we married  in Bali if I will go to USA ?

much appreciated for your advise and information.

 

thank you

Use guides for i-130. Then ask basic questions. 

 

And spouse visa also takes time. Dont think that's it's going to be instant or faster than k1.

If you both are married and living in Bali, you would apply for a spousal CR1/IR1 visa to move to the us. Previous B1/B2 denials shouldn’t be an issue unless it was something serious like a lying on the application. Current processing times are 12-14 months. 

 

I dont know if you can DCF from Bali... I don’t think you can... but if you can that’s an option too (way shorter processing time). Can anyone confirm/deny this?
