Best Answer

To combat the wait, your spouse can file a Form I-129F - nonimmigrant K-3 Visa - at the same time that the immigrant petition is filed. This will allow them to live and work in the U.S. while your immigrant visa petition is pending. If your spouse does not file the petition for a K-3 Visa, they may be forced to wait outside the country until their application for immigrant status has been approved.
