I wanted to get your opinions on the current K3 visa process.
Prior to July 2007, there was a fee for the I-129F for the K3 visa. This fee essentially provided a limitation to the number of people that turned in the application. THis was primarily because of the general consensus that the K3 took almost the same time as the I-130 so why waste your money.
But now it is free, so anybody can apply for it. Based on the current processing times as the CSC, both the I-130 and the I-129F for K3 is 6 months.
SO here is my thought. SHould the K3 be eliminated and the resources exclusively channelled to processing the I-130 faster? At the end of the day, what is the point of using up resources for the K3 when it is no faster than the I-130?
If you vote yes to the above, any practical suggestion to eliminate the K3. We cannot wait for the USCIS or congress. They will not move until you prod them.
