CR1 Visa > K1 Visa?

Back story:

I'm a Ukrainian-American Dual Citizen.

My fiance is a Ukrainian Citizen.

Apparently it's impossible for me to get married in Ukraine as an American, even if I'm legally here on my American Passport.

I have two main questions

  1. I can't find this information ANYWHERE: Can we still potentially get approved for a CR1 visa if my Ukrainian marriage certificate states that I'm a Ukrainian citizen married to a Ukrainian citizen? Maybe because of this issue it'll just be easier to go for the K1. (I've just been told that by almost every measure the CR1 is better, especially since I don't live in the US.
  2. Does anyone know how much of an issue it is that (because I live in Ukraine) I haven't had an actual income for the past 2 years? I can show something like 4x the poverty level in my bank account and either of my parents can cosponsor me.

​

Thank you, you wonderful & helpful people

​

edit: Ukraine technically doesn't allow dual-citizenship, so in Ukraine I'm a Ukrainian citizen who happens to have another passport, not necessarily a dual citizen

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
