What is the distinction between a K-3 visa and a V visa?
A K-3 visa is for the purpose of admitting an alien spouse of a U.S. Citizen for whom a family based immigrant petition (Form I-130) is pending, while a V visa is for the purpose of admitting an alien spouse (V-1), children (V-2), or dependent children of an alien spouse (V-3) of a U.S. Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) for whom a family based immigrant petition (Form I-130) is pending.
