US Visa Thailand - CR1 Visa Thailand

A CR-1 spouse visa is for a spouse of a US citizen that has been married to the US citizen for less than 2 years.

US sponsors must prove you have been working or residing legally in your foreign country of residence for 1 year or more and can support your spouse above the US poverty line, which is US $17,170 of income per year for a 2 person household.

If applicants qualify for an CR1 spouse visa, the application can be processed through a USCIS overseas office, which normally processes the visa application much faster than the USCIS offices located in the US.

CR1 spouse visa applicants will receive an official 2 year greencard in the mail 2 - 3 months after arrival and are able to work immediately after arrival in the US.

CR1 spouse visa applicants do not have to adjust their status, but are required to file for removal of conditions within 90 days after of their 2 year anniversary of their arrival in the US.

CR1 spouse visa applications normally take 4 months to process depending on the caseload of USCIS and US Embassy if the US sponsor resides in a foreign country.

CR1 spouse visa applications normally take 8 months to process depending on the caseload of USCIS and US Embassy if the US sponsor resides in the US.
