My fiance and I got approved for the K1 visa and she has a flight to the US in two days. Unfortunately she's decided that she's not ready to move or get married but still wants to come see me in person and then fly home a week later. I was wondering if she should still enter through the K1 visa or if she should get an ESTA and come through as a visitor. Also, are there any legal implications for her entering as a K1 and then leaving a week later without getting married?

Apply for advanced parole (travel) and work authorization along with the greencard. Both are free when accompanying AOS application. She will be approved in 3-4 months to work and also leave the US (and return)  instead of waiting on the greencard which could take a year to get. 

Oh that's very good to know. She'll be moving here in July and we'd like to go back to the UK for Christmas so we will apply for AP then. Thank you!

She can travel anywhere but I'm not sure about entering the usa because if she does they may use her k1 visa upon entry. Starting her 90 days. Correct me if I'm wrong 

Our trip to Amsterdam will be before she enters the USA on a K1 visa. Once she enters the USA she won't be leaving the country until she gets her green card!

My fiance has her interview date in London on May 15th and we currently have a trip scheduled for Amsterdam on June 1st. If/when her K1 visa is approved, is she allowed to travel to other EU countries before she travels to the USA? She isn't planning on moving to America until July and I know she won't be able to leave the USA until she gets her green card.

My fiance, from Scotland, and I just received our NOA1 and are starting the ACRO Police certificate. At the bottom it mentions needing the case number and immigration officer information. Do we get assigned an immigration officer once we get our case number from the NVC? Is this

something we need to fill in?

We just received our NOA2**

I would wait a little bit before getting the PC as it has an expiration date, and since you just got your NOA1 you might risk having to get a new one if there are any delays in your journey

Oh sorry that was a typo, we just received the NOA2! But good to know that it has a expiration date. We're hoping to get the medical exam and interview done in the next 3-4 months.

I'm from England and just recently got my ACRO Police Certificate. As I have no case number or officer yet I didn't provide that info and got the certificate no problem  

 

Are you guys applying for this online or by mail? Online may be faster and there's a box you can fill in to indicate that you haven't been assigned a case number yet. 

That is very helpful, thank you so much! And we're going to apply online, just looking at the mail version to see what it was like.
