How much time

Hey guys I am not sure if this has already been answered.
I have a question, once a girl gets her visa how long can she stay in Colombia, does she have to go right away.
And how long does she have to stay in USA once she is married.
What if the couple want to stay in Colombia longer or live for a time down here. but they have already fiiled for a visa. Can the girl loose her visa, will she be able to come back frequently.
Is it a wierd question. I really need to know.

you can stay in colombia 6 months after the visa approval

Then you need to come to the us, get married, apply for adjustment of status and also for a permision to re entry the country (advance of parole) it can take you 90 days or so to get the AP, and then you need to be here for whenever you are schedule to have the Adjustment of Status interview.

I think that you need to come to the us at least one every 6 months but I am not quite sure how does it work... anyway if your intention is to stay in Colombia probably it's a better idea to get married in colombia, get him residence and then after 6 months he can do DCF (direct consular f...?) or get married in colombia and apply for a k3 that will allow you to go out of the country and come back without need of advance Parole.

utopia cowboy knows more about k3s he can guide you better.

Siviat's right. If you need to go back and forth to Colombia for a while, you might be better off getting married in Colombia and getting a K3. The K3 is a two year multiple entry visa. The processing times are about the same for the K1 and the K3.

Disclaimer: any comment I make is inane and is not to be taken seriously, and is so patently ridiculous that no one should take it seriously, even as an insult.
