Because he is a student he can get a J1 student visa which allows him to work here in the states. While he is here can we get married then fill out the I485. With a baby on the way and our debt we both con not affort not to be working.

Hi we are an american female and a australian male. We meet each other in 2009 while working at a ski resort. Troy returned to australia to study and we kept in contact, then he returned late 2010 for another ski season where we begun our realtionship. In march 2011 he returned to australia for study, where i stay and saved then moved to australia in september 2011, where we had been living together in a defacto releationship since. My australian visa expires on september 8th 2012 and we both which to relocate to america. I recently found out that i am 3 months pregnant and we dont want to be apart again. We are looking to marry before the baby is due.

We have looked at the k1 visa but our confused as it seems that we have to wait in australia until its processed or be apart which we dont want.

Any advice?

Should we apply for the k1 visa now while in australia

Or

Get him a tourist or j1 visa as he is a student then lodge the k1 when we get to america?

Please help we need advice.
