Spot on. Yes, you will need to return home and he will apply. It take anywhere from 3 to 6 months on average. Less time if he is Republican. That tells the adjudicator he has a brain. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

In the end getting the fiance visa might be quicker at first, but still have to do the adjustment application too. So it is just as easy to marry here and adjust your status. Have you been in the U.S. more than six months?Comment

Hi Tamie,
If you will undergo the fiancee visa route and curious to know the actual timelines of people who had undergone your situation (some of them are from Canada too like you), this
site provides some examples as well.
Good luck!
Do all the good you can, in all the ways you can, as long as ever you can.

Hi Tamie,
My brother-in-law used the fiance visa route to bring his girlfriend here from Canada. They hit a few snags, but their process took about 9 months.Comment

Tamie, what I am not sure is which visa you have while in the US and whether your soon to be husband is a USC? Although never stated, the fiancee visa is only available to USC while adjutment of status is to both USC and Green Card holders, who are the petitioner.
It would help if you clarify your current visa status and whether your husband is a USC."Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."

Since you are not married yet, you will not be eligible to adjust status if you overstay your visa before the I-485 is filed. And rushing into marriage may not be a wise idea either.
However, going back home to Canada and having your fiancee apply the K-1 visa is the safer approach. Your fiancee can probably come visit you, but you will not be able to come visit him while the K-1 visa is in process. The K-1 will take about a year to process. You just need to be patient.
Hope this helps."Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence." John Adams on Defense of the boston MassacreComment

You and your fiancee have a simple case, a lawyer is not necessary nor will a lawyer speed things up. However, if your fiancee is nervouse about filling out government forms, then a lawyer may be beneficial, or you or your financee may have someone who is knowledgeable in immigration processing look over the papwer work before it is submitted to USCIS."Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence."
