Immigrating to the U.S. from Indonesia

G'day. Not sure if I'm in the right forum...
Anyhow, here goes.
I'm American and lived in Australia for 12 years. I returned to the U.S. 3 years ago. While in Oz, I met my future wife about 5 years ago. She was in Oz visiting her daughter. We dated until her visa expired and she had to return to Indonesia. Then I returned to the U.S. We stayed in touch and in may 2016 we decided to get married! I flew to CGK on 14 August last year, and we were married on 16 August 2016.

Now comes the hard part, how to get her to the U.S.?
What are my options?

I have spent hours searching online, and the only way I have found to get my wife a visa is on the USCIS website which involves getting a spousal visa. Not as easy as it may sound! Involves tones of paperwork and hundreds of pages to be translated from Indonesian to English!!

USCIS has a toll free number to call, but none to answer my question of is there another way to getmy wife a visa? Also is an option to ask a question online, but again my situation is not an option


Any help, hints, options are appreciated!!!
