We are both living in the Philippines. I m a US Citizen and my wife is Filipino. We submitted the I-864 and DS-260 to NVC ON June 10, 2022. We will celebrate our 2nd Wedding Anniversary on July 10, 2022. Will our designation change Automatically from CR1 to IR1 when we pass our Anniversary date. What do we have to do to get the IR1 designation? Is it even possible? Obviously a 10 year GC is preferable to 2 years. Thanks.

I am a bit confused, and I hope somebody here can help me. here's my story.

My mom came to USA as work Visa 25years ago, me and my dad was with her. We came to USA legally. My mom did not finish her contract, our visa expired but we stayed and live with our relatives.

I applied DACA when I reached 18, married a USC, become a permanent resident, and now I'm a USC.

I wanted to file for greencard for my parents. What forms do I file?

Thank you!

6months into K1, thinking of switching to Spouse Visa ...

USCIS has received our K1 application with a receipt date of Dec. 2021 at the California processing center. We're now over 6months into the journey. We're both working and stalk Facebook groups often to read about people's timelines and what they're going through. The latest idea that spooked us is that even after the whole K1 journey ends at the marriage part, we're hearing that it'll now take about 15 months to get a green card to start working etc. If it was the historical 6 months of idle time to get the green card, I would be okay for my partner, but 15 months for life to be on pause would drive her crazy and I'd rather for my partner to be happy.

I imagined it as 2 paths, let me know if this is pretty accurate:

K1 Path:

1. Wait out the 13 months of "normal" processing times, get married in US probably in Feb at a courthouse.

2. During the supposed 15 months of idle time, my partner can plan the wedding and chill ... or, most likely she'll be frustrated with not being able to do much.

Spouse Path

1. I write a letter ASAP to withdraw the k1 visa.

2. I have already bought plane tickets to visit her in the Phillpines in early September for 2 weeks, we can use that time to do a quick courthouse wedding

3. I return to US, apply for the Spouse visa

4. Supposedly, we wait 6 to 12 months for everything to be processed and she can start living in US after a year.

*The "supposed" times are all based on what we read from other people on facebook. I have yet to find a lawyer to confirm those times.

But, based on our situation right now, which path should we go?
