You have any better suggestions that are faster? Current estimates seem to be 10 months for K1 and 18-24 months for CR1.

Thank you so much! That makes it feel so much more doable and less intimidating. Here I was, thinking we were an extreme outlier, but it turns out it's a common enough occurrence to be included in the form...? Who would have thought. Yeah, it's been a year since I worked on the I-129F, so I find myself a bit rusty. But I also realise there's a lot I didn't pay attention to last time, since it didn't apply to us. The waiver, for example. I probably didn't even read the instructions for that part, since we didn't need it. Thanks again, E.

Hi all, I'm in bit of a pickle. I (beneficiary) had my K-1 approved last year, entered the US in December, but due to a series of events, I ended up having to leave the country in January, before we could get married. From what I could find on the internet, I would have to apply for a new K-1. Fine, I thought. I've done it once, I can do it again. However. I'm now back in the US on an ESTA, preparing the paperwork for the new I-129F, when I come across the following A.I. summary on Brave search: What does this mean? What are my chances of being granted this waiver? We really can't afford an immigration attorney, so we have to try to solve this issue ourselves. I don't want to go too deeply into the reasons I left, since they are personal, and I have no paperwork to justify my decision anyway. Are my fiancé and I better off marrying and applying for a CR-1, or even waiting two years to apply again? What date will they be counting from? When we sent in the previous I-129F, or from I was granted the K-1 visa? Or even from the expiry date on the visa? Grateful for any insights, E.
