If you get married you are not eligible for k1

If you get married in Jordan, you will then apply for the CR-1 spousal visa. If you just get engaged, you will apply for the K1 fiance visa.

She going to visit or to live? It's true that if your'e married, you don't qualify for the K1. If you get married in Jordan then you can apply for a spousal visa. It would really just depends on what works best for you both

As a male from a MENA country your best bet is for you are your partner to pursue the CR1 route. Many members here recommend it over the K1

Both visas have their pros and cons, so it's completely up to you and your girlfriend.

As a Jordan member I will tell you since she is just a girlfriend and coming for the first time, get to know each other well first. There is no rush! I dont know how long you've known each other but it always looks better to the CO when there are several trips made. If you are certain about each other for marriage, and since you are male, go the CR1 route. It is longer than usual processing times though so prepare for that. WHATEVER YOU DO, do not get married and then apply for K1 to avoid longer processing times.  They can and will find out so see how it works on the first visit and then decide. Good Luck.
