My husband filed my k3 visa last month?

Question

based on our estimate, it might be approved end of this year 2008. however, i might need to go with my husband to the usa before that, maybe in june , is it possible to get a tourist visa for me while my k3 or spousal visa is pending?

Answer 1

from personal experience   in 2006  i married in china  and  working as a helicopter pilot   i sponsored my wife  I130  and was approved     few months later i needed to return back to USA for emergency surgery   my wife and attorney friend  went to the us consulate  and applied for  non immigrant    visitor     she was denied   turned around and filed under humanitarian reason  it to was turned  down  she wasted     the appointment fees   take you chances but  will be  downned

Answer 2

you can try and apply... but you'll have a harder time convincing the consul that you are not using it as an excuse to stay in the US while waiting for the k3 visa to get processed.

a lot of people abuse the whole process. you might not doing it yourself, but as a precaution, as long as you have an immigrant visa pending, they usually just deny your application for a non-immigrant visa.

Answer 3

is better to wait till they schedule you for appointment and give you immigrant visa other than looking for a short cut which I believe is not going to be possible.  Good luck
