Yes it is an official extension :). We certainly do not want to cause any delays ;). If we file the paperwork ourselves and it is close to the end of the extension how do we get confirmation she does not need to leave the country? Is it safe to assume that since we have a legitimate marriage...

Oh ok hmmm. Lots to think about :). She is past the 90 days but it is because she has been granted an additional 30 days (courtesy given to Japanese citizens due to current events) and it was approved by the USCIS so I assume that will not be an issue :). Ok thanks everyone I really...

Ok well if there is a fair chance she would be denied then I guess the K-1 is the best course of action. In that case should she return under the VWP and once she is here we file the K-1? This way it would give us minimal time apart. Also, I am not aware of any restrictions as far as delays...

Quick question about the I-485... I am looking at processing times here in California and it appears the I-485 can take 6months or longer. If this is the case then how does this help my fiance stay in the US? So even if we get married, file our I-130, and file our I-485 she would still have...

Thanks for the reply!!!... I have a few more questions that you guys might be able to help me with. Is there a delay between visits under the VWP or can she leave the US and come back a month later? She is under the impression she has to send her Visa to the Consulate in order to complete...

My fiance from Japan has about 25 days left of the 90 allowed her under the VWP. We have decided to get married and would like to know what our options are. Is applying for a K-1 our best option? If the situation were reversed and I was in Japan for 2 months I could have already married her...
