wayout, Ks are a lot more expensive than you think. They are closer to $1k. Ks are petition based visas. First you file the petition with USCIS, form I-129, which costs $340. Then when the petition is ready for interview, the fiancee will get a medical exam which varies by country but is around $200 usually. The you pay the visa fee which is $240. From petition filing to visa Issuance will take 8-12 months normally. If you mess it up, particularly with DHS, it will take much longer. So many people hire lawyers and visa consultants such usually charge $500 for their service for a K. unlike a spouse, a K doesn't automatically become an LPR once you get married. You will have to apply to adjust their status with DHS (another $340). Plus until that is done, she us not allowed to work legally. This process takes 3-6 months.
