    You start with the I-130, relative petition. Check with the AMCON if they accept direct consular filing (DCF). If they do, then you can file there and your spouse files for the immigrant visa at the same time.

    Good luck.

    Can only file I-485 for adjustment of status if she is physically present in the US. To get her in, you will need the K-3 visa.
