  1. Thank you, I think this clears it up. I saw several websites who said K1 takes only 6 months but if times are similar, there's no point going for K1 at all. Thank you very much for your time!
  2. Apologies for not being clear, I meant marrying after getting the Fiancee visa. Do I understand this correctly though - CR is apparently way better but it will take more than a year to be processed meaning I need to stay in my current country until then. For K1 - a lot more paperwork and costs but with an EAD it means after getting married, I only need to wait 3-6 months to be able to work? Judging by the information on the website, at the end the total time for both is the same?
  3. Good afternoon, I've read all the guides here but I would like to ask for advice on people more familiar with the procedure. Apologies if I missed a topic - if this is discussed already somewhere, giving me the link will be appreciated! My boyfriend is a US citizen and I am a EU citizen. Since he's in the military and has a contract for few more years, the only way for us to stay together is for me moving to the USA. We want to get married but I am very uncomfortable not being able to find a job when I arrive. I am an experienced professional in IT/Finance so I shouldn't have an issues with that but of course I need to be allowed to. We are looking into getting a Fiancee visa -> me visiting and getting married -> applying to become a permanent resident after the marriage. I understood that during the processing of the application I can legally work - is this actually correct? Now I'm reading this forum and reddit, and apparently getting married first and then applying for CR-1 is better and takes less time? I'm really confused because I want to be with him as soon as possible, but also not be a financial burden... I have savings of course, enough for several months, but that won't be a great solution. Does anyone have advice on this? What is the quickest way to get together and me being able to legally work?
