Petition for?
Should you marry overseas, or not?

| Summary: The majority of couples choose to apply for a Fiancee visa, as the Fiancee Visa is slightly simpler, and faster to obtain and the couple can apply immediately after they have met face to face. They do not have to delay in order to organize the complicated formalities of a wedding in a foreign country. Spousal visas take longer to process, but at the end of the day is less expensive by about $800 in government fees. The green card is approved during the slower CR-1 process. |
