    Your best bet will of course be getting married ASAP and your spouse adding you to their insurance policy - marriage is a qualifying life event. I'm not sure what other insurance you'd qualify for as you're not really a tourist given that on K-1 you're expected to AOS and become an LPR. I know our company when sending folks to the US for training gets them seven corners health insurance policy - may want to check if they cover K-1?

    I wouldn't be surprised if there was an extra long admin processing for all types of visas for this country now.

    OP, I think you're getting swindled. Plenty of US citizens or LPRs in the US for the receptionist and sandwich maker positions. Cut your losses now and don't pay whoever this middle man agency is. That is not how either USCIS or visa issuance works.

    Are you not familiar with uscis.gov? If not, time to get very familiar because it has fee calculator and the list of filing fees - https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-fees

    They're no longer doing interview waivers. Expect your father to have to go in for an interview.

    Umm if she's in ROC stage, she'll be fine. ~Moving to removing conditions forum, OP's case is well past AOS.~

    From what you listed DV, assault and similar - stay away - not worth it your life to end up dead for a visa. Find someone else. I'm sure not just consulate but also the CFO process will flag your petitioner.

    30 cases in 24 years? Did he do time? I wouldn't be considering K-1 under these circumstances.

    When we did DCF close to 20 years ago, both of us went to the embassy - petitioner and beneficiary.

    Not PI related, but affects everyone overseas who has a bank account - FATCA reporting on yearly basis - I believe accounts with more than $50k in them. In a lot of cases, they won't easily open a local bank account for a USC given all the reporting requirements. There's also FBAR reporting. https://www.irs.gov/businesses/corporations/summary-of-fatca-reporting-for-us-taxpayers

    You won't qualify for DCF as you have already filed I-130. Best option would be to ask USCIS for expedite - in the meantime, hold spouse and child's cases at NVC until daughter's case makes it there.

    Yeah that address where his ex wife still resides - that's a problem. She better find a different residence before you move there. He should figure this out well ahead of your interview time.

    This would've been one case the K-1 would've been advantageous but you're past that now.

    She was a young teenager then so CSPA wasn't a consideration. But yes, normally you do want it to take as long as possible if there are derivatives involved.

    You're understanding correctly, but what you're missing - the unknown to us x factor, is the line of submitted petitions since that 2009. The numerical limits on immigrant visas for preference categories are not something that changes. You have X number of them for F4 category, whoever is below the cutoff for issuance, gets in the line - and that line just keeps growing. Perhaps visa bulletin on state.gov would be of some help to get you some details? Just google visa bulletin November 2025 and from there you can go back see prior months issuances. I think they also break it down by preference categories, then by country.
