Just submit all the required documents upfront including RLF. Have your state Police Clearance for all states where you lived more than 6 mos. This will reduce your timeline by about 2 months.
If possible, you can also check the status b visitng the consulate which gave me enough leads to get my case processed faster.

Goodluck.

Thanks for the advice.

Yeah, we intend to pay all fees right up front. Luckily he's only lived in Nevada, so he only has the one clearance to get.

What we're struggling with right now is whether i should go there to get married or we should run the risk of him being denied entry for our wedding in June (which we'll still have regardless).

I think this for me - yes they did; our exlawyer interfered and we have to prove we have a committed relationship and that he intends to live with me.
