    No way she can go with you to Asia any time soon. Her Greencard or at least AP needs to be approved first and then you still need your orders amended in order for her to join you. Which means she'll also have do the EFMP screening to get command sponsored. You can try to expedite as soon as you filed for AOS and have a case number but that still takes time. She can do the interview alone but most likely she has to stay in the US a couple months. 
    Don't know if you can try for a compassionate reassignment to get back Conus sooner. I don't really see it happen for that reason but might worth a try.

    Once she enters the US, you will have 90 days to marry...... Her K-1 visa is voided as soon as she enters the US.  If she fails to marry you within 90 days, she will immediately be out of status and subject to removal from the US.  Even after marriage, her authorized stay is only 90 days unless she has submitted a proper I-485. Once you are married, she needs to immediately file for adjustment of status.  If she leaves the US prior to obtaining a valid travel document (which could take many months), she will abandon her adjustment....then she will need a spousal visa or citizenship to re-enter and live in the US.  I would IMMEDIATELY schedule a meeting with my base legal office if I were you.  This could be a real mess since her adjustment of status could easily take 18 months after marriage.  She might need to return to her country and wait out a spousal visa after marriage.
    There was a much better way to handle this before starting the K-1 visa process. 
     
    The immigration process requires a great deal of proper planning, knowledge, time, patience, and money.

    PaxMundi got a reaction from Crazy Cat in TRAVEL OVERSEAS WITH SPOUSE WHO ENTERED IN THE UNITED STATES WITH A K1 VISA   
    Hello all,
     I'm Active Duty military  stationed overseas in Asia. My Fiancee received her K1 Visa and she is traveling to the United States soon so we can get married.   I will meet her  in the States. My concerns are now that her K1 Visa will expire   in a few months.  I'm  due to rotate from my current overseas station in about a year.   I have nobody in the States with who  my wife can stay  while I' m outside the Continental United States.  I heard travel outside the U. S . under a K1 visa is not an option. So how do I bring my wife  to join me in Asia with a K1 Visa that will expire in a few months? 
     Any guidance in this matter is much appreciated. Thank you all.

    Haha , I agree .. It sounds like a lottery, but it is not ...our turn is coming.😆.  I blame COVID-19  for all this, because I remember when  I petitioned my mother in 2008, it took about 5 months the most for my mother to be in the U.S.,  to include my deployments, and delays responding to inquiries from immigration services.  
    14 Years later the COVID-19 and the  New World Order changed  and made things difficult: the conclusion I'm drawing from this nowadays process, is that if you are a U.S. Citizen and want to marry a foreign,  your date to marry depends not on you the partners,  or the family but on the will of the government.   Me and my fiancee refrained from talking about the date  for marriage since November when I have realized the my case wasn't processed as estimated.  Taking more than a  year to process visa application mostly the visa that permit partners to marry sounds Painful and Stressful.  I always say May God help all parties involved.

    PaxMundi got a reaction from Gary Rich in k-1 processing time 9-12 months???   
    Yes, I 've seen it and I was surprised. Like prior responders  wrote, that  processing time is not absolute. So at this point God only knows what is going on.  Keep hoping and pray for the best. I'm on the same boat. ( early 2021 filer).

    You're deployed or you PCS'ed oconus? You could have asked for an expedite before but since you're already gone there's no reason to expedite now cause who is your fiancee supposed to marry in the states if you're not there? 😉😁
    At this point you can only inquire online about being outside normal processing times if you're outside.

    I've heard before military deployment may be grounds for an expedite. Someone else on here may be able to better assist, though I think in those cases they involved an imminent assignment. Not sure if your situation changes because you're already there. Your waiting right now is, unfortunately, normal; I don't think any March filers have an interview yet, though about 30% have NOA2.
     
    Thank you for your service, particularly in this stressful time, btw.
