US Immigration Consultation - Fiancé(e) Visa K-1

The K-1 Fiancé(e) Visa is a popular option for U.S. citizens wishing to marry their foreign fiancé(e) and bring them to the U.S. The process involves proving the legitimacy of the relationship through evidence like photographs, travel records, and communication logs. Once the visa is approved and the fiancé(e) arrives in the U.S., the couple must marry within 90 days. Afterward, the foreign spouse can apply for a green card and begin the process of permanent residency.

However, the K-1 visa process involves multiple steps and strict scrutiny from U.S. immigration authorities. Applicants must also pass medical exams and background checks to ensure they meet eligibility requirements. Delays or denials can occur if there are gaps in documentation or concerns about fraud. To navigate these complexities, many couples choose to work with an immigration attorney to streamline the process and reduce the risk of complications.
