Just my two cents on the topic. I was going trough the same dilemma last year to whether get married or apply for K-1 visa. The I-130 road takes up to 3 years, most of the wait time is to get interview at ISL embassy (almost 20 months after getting your i-130 approved). I have heard horror stories about k-1 visa getting denied (epically in Pakistan) and then they had to get married to apply for i-130. If you feel that you have good strong case you should be okay. I got my Nikah done on the second trip and applied for i-130 and playing this wait game. Best of luck with your case. keep us updated

Does anyone know how long is the wait time for getting an Interview at the Kuala Lumpur embassy after getting DQ? CR1 Category

I have filled out DS-260 and all other forms on the NVC. From my understanding after getting Documenltaly qualified the next step is the interview. In Pakistan, there's an awful backlog at the embassy with wait time nearing 2 years, even for spouses and parents. My concern is due to the backlog and extended waiting time I will be over 21 by the time I get my interview date. Just not sure if my age is locked after getting DQ or not

Through my elder brother, he's US citizen

Since Child Status Protection Act is applied to applies to adjustment of status applications adjudicate on or after Feb. 14, 2023, and mine was approved in March 2023. I would be okay under this act?
