A K1 Fiancé(e) (I-129F) is a powerful option that allows U.S. citizens to bring their fiancé to the United States.

USCIS Case Processing Times
USCIS has a portal that displays case processing times for selected forms and locations so you can see how long it typically takes to process a claim and when to contact us with questions about your case. They update the case processing times on the website monthly with the latest available data.
The time from receipt to completion is included in the K1 fiancé visa processing times. This consists of the time needed to submit biometrics, answer requests for more information from applicants, petitioners, or requestors, and reschedule interviews.
Close to 40% of Fiance Visas are denied. Our Love Visa helps thousands of couples increase the likelihood of being approved. Join the Our Love Visa Community today!
What does this processing time mean?
USCIS typically handles cases in the order in which they are received. This processing time is determined by how long it took them to finish 80% of the cases that were adjudicated in the previous 6 months. Since every situation is different, some may take longer to resolve than others. Processing times should only be used as a guideline and not as a strict gauge of how long it will take to resolve your case.
