“Consular Processing” is the immigration process for those individuals who are applying for immigrant visas from outside of the United States.

Consular processing is the immigration process for the following visa types:

CR1/IR1 spouse and the accompanying CR2/IR2 child when the sponsor is a U.S. citizen
F2A category (F21 spouse; F22 child) when the sponsor is a legal permanent resident (aka green card holder)
Please note that consular processing can also be used to apply for employment-based, humanitarian, and diversity visa lottery green cards.

You may have heard that COVID-19 led to delayed CR-1 Spousal visa processing in many countries. The good news is that U.S. embassies and consulates have now been authorized to prioritize CR-1 and IR-1 visas again. Learn the current status of CR-1 and IR-1 visa processing by country in our blog post. Please check this page regularly for updates. We’ll continue to update the blog post as we receive new information from immigration agencies.

It is also important to note that U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is currently accepting and processing Form I-130 (Petition for Alien Relative). Even if you’re concerned about possible delays during the second, embassy stage of the CR-1 / IR-1 visa process, applicants are encouraged to apply for their spouse visa now, in order to jump-start the process.

If you and your spouse have been married for less than two years at the time your spousal visa is approved, the green card that is issued will be a CR-1 “conditional” green card and only valid for two years. The letters “CR-1” on the physical green card stand for “conditional resident.”

After two years, you’ll once again need to prove that your marriage is real and complete a process called “Removal of Conditions”. You’ll then be able to get a “permanent” green card, or an IR-1, valid for 10–year renewable periods. The letters “IR-1” on the physical green card stand for “immediate relative.”

Every spousal visa applicant who has been married for less than two years receives a conditional green card. Practically speaking, a conditional permanent resident has the same rights and privileges as a permanent resident.

Getting a CR-1 visa has nothing to do with how much proof of a valid relationship you and your spouse provided, or how convinced U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is that you have a genuine marriage. It does, however, mean that there is one more step to becoming a permanent green card holder. Luckily, Boundless secures your account information for seamless help on the next stage of the process, when it comes time to file for a permanent green card!
