With the current pandemic, any advice on choice between K1 and CR1 (UK>US)

Hi everyone

Firstly an apology as I know a lot of information is out there however there is so much of it and I am feeling really overwhelmed. A lot of it predates the pandemic and I am having a hard time figuring out the best course of action.

I have recently become engaged to my US fiance and we are trying to work out which is the likely quicker route to me being in the US and preferably able to work.

My general understanding from what I've read seems to be that prior to the pandemic the K1 would have been quicker but now there is a huge backlog and therefore the CR1 would be better although much lengthier, up to two years from the marriage? This seems like a terrifyingly long wait.

A more particular question, if current conditions remained, could I even travel to the USA on a K1 visa right now?

At this moment we haven't booked a wedding and I am just looking for any advice or experience someone here might be able to offer. We are not especially worried about what the route costs at this time, it really just comes down to time.

My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...

DS-260 Have you ever attended any educational institutions at a secondary level or above?

Ok so I’m not sure what to put down here, I have a high school diploma and currently attending college! So for the occupation part for a previous question I put down the school I go to and address, however I am uncertain what to put down here, I put my high school start and end date but do I also include the college? Because it says highest level of education COMPLETED but also in the drop down menu there is an option that says UNIVERSITY,NO DEGREE which if I do choose then I will have to fill out the school information and then a start date and an end date which I still do not know this is the only question I’m struggling will and have looked into it but no straightforward answer! I hope you guys can help submitted by /u/AlarmingUmpire3 [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/immigration/comments/j2eni9/ds260_have_you_ever_attended_any_educational/
