Is the CR-1 Spousal Visa Right For You?

If you’re married to a U.S. citizen or green card holder, and you’re looking to obtain a marriage-based green card while living abroad, you’ll need to apply at your local U.S. Embassy or Consulate. This process — called “consular processing” — will grant you a CR1 visa, which will allow you to live and work in the United States.

We know that the CR-1 process is complex and often challenging, and we want to help you apply confidently.

Frequently Asked Questions

CR-1 Spousal Visas

Who is eligible to apply?

A CR1 visa allows a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident (green card holder) to sponsor their foreign spouse to come to the U.S. The couple must be lawfully married and provide a valid marriage certificate. The authenticity of the marriage must be proven with evidence, and the sponsor must pledge to financially support their spouse.

How long does the CR-1 process take?

The processing timeline for a CR-1 application currently averages 9.3 months.  Processing times can vary based on your specific situation.

How much does it cost to apply?

The current total cost for a CR-1 visa is $1340. These fees do not reflect additional costs, such as translating and photocopying your documents and obtaining required documents such as your birth certificate.

What forms do I need to submit?

First, the U.S. citizen sponsor will need to file Form I-130 (officially called the “Petition for Alien Relative”). Next, the green card applicant will complete Form DS-260 (officially called the “Application for Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration”).
