A K-3 visa is a type of visa that allows the spouse of a U.S. citizen to enter the United States on a temporary basis while waiting for their permanent residency, also known as a “green card.” However, in most cases, the K-3 visa is not necessary and may involve unnecessary steps and additional costs compared to other options.
On average, the processing time for a K-3 visa is approximately 19 months. This is similar to the time it takes for USCIS to approve a marriage-based green card application. Due to the lengthy processing time and additional expenses, many people find that applying for a K-3 visa is not the best choice.
To be eligible for a K-3 visa, the following criteria must be met:
The application process for a K-3 visa involves filing Form I-129F with USCIS, attending an interview at the U.S. embassy or consulate in the applicant’s home country, and submitting required documents such as marriage certificates, passports, and proof of relationship. Once approved, the spouse can travel to the United States.
It is important to note that while the K-3 visa allows spouses to enter the U.S. temporarily, it may not be the best option due to lengthy processing times and additional expenses. Couples are often advised to consider other options, such as applying for a green card through consular processing.
