Are you a U.S. citizen engaged to a foreign national and dreaming of starting your life together in the United States? The K-1 fiancé(e) visa is your pathway to making that dream a reality. At Cohen Immigration Law Group, our experienced K-1 visa attorneys understand the complexities of this process and are dedicated to guiding you every step of the way.
The K-1 visa allows a foreign citizen fiancé(e) to enter the United States for the purpose of marrying their U.S. citizen petitioner within 90 days of arrival. The U.S. citizen must first file Form I-129F to establish the relationship, and the couple must have met in person at least once within the past two years. After the marriage, the foreign national spouse can then apply for a green card (lawful permanent residency) through Adjustment of Status.
To qualify for a fiancé visa, you must meet the following requirements:
– The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen
– Both partners must be legally free to marry
– You must intend to marry within 90 days of entry into the U.S.
– You must have met in person at least once within the last 2 years (with limited exceptions)
– You must prove a genuine (bona fide) relationship
