Excellent research!

You first need to decide which visa route you're going to do (K-1 or spouse Immigrant). The forms are different for each, so don't go researching one if it's not going to apply to you.

Thanks for all this guys, really appreciate it.
Another question, will my fiance encounter any problems applying for an ESTA after we submit the I-130?
Thanks

Filing a tax return is a requirement for all Americans making above a certain amount no matter where they live in the world. There is approximately a $95,000 per year foreign earned income exclusion as well as tax credits can be used. For most Americans living overseas, they won't owe any US taxes.
