Hey guys!! I am a U.S. Citizen and me and my Dutch Fiance (from Holland) filed in April, they recieved our case May 2nd, 2017, and today is day 139 of our case status. We had everything in the packet, not a chance of an RFE, however, based on the time table (between March 1 - July 31) that is right in the time frame (About 5 months) that we should be recieving our NOA2. I was wondering, are there any April/May filers recieving their NOA2? We really want to get married in early December, But I am getting a little worried now... the embassy in NL granted her a B2 with unlimited entries for the purpose of visiting me during our wait, and Shes used it one time now, (there is never a problem when youre honest) I just wanted to see who else is out there in this time frame and if they have any opinion or experience? Thanks!!!

I speak dutch if there are any Dutch filers: 

Ik spreek vloeiend Nederlands dus als er wat Nederlanders zijn, jullie kunnen met mij spreken!! Ik kom uit Amerika maar ik heb de taal geleerd voor mijn verloofde! Succes met je visums!

neither

 

the k1 is to marry and adjust status in the US, she must enter as your fiancé to the US and marry within 90 days

 

if you get married in the Netherlands, then she can't apply for the visa

 

the k3 visa is for married couples, spouses of USC to enter the country and adjust status, but it is practically obsolete, since it takes around the same time as the CR1 spousal visa

 

that Is the one that you would do, file the i130 for her, the process will take around a year for her to come. there is no type of visa where she can come immediately to adjust status.

 

unless you change your minds and decide to marry in the US and go for the k1 visa for her to come to marry. if you marry first, then your only option would be the conditional residency which can take from 8 months to a year for her to come

 

We are getting Married in the Netherlands yes... but under US Law by having the marriage preformed by a US consulate therefore being recognized as a legal marriage under US Law. That is what makes this different.  

Me and my fiancé have just recently been engaged in the Netherlands. She is Dutch and I am a US citizen. We want to get married in the NL but move to America right afterwards. All the information I have read really doesn't seem to answer any of our questions. By the time we would get to America we will be married but as we want to apply for our visa's we are still engaged. Are we allowed to apply for a K-3 as we are still engaged? It seems that we need to file a K-1 Fiancé visa and a K-3 in order to bring her to America after the marriage but we are unsure of which direct A to B path to follow. Anything helps!
