Marriage Using a K1 Fiancee Visa to a Foreigner Made Potential

Saying "I do" to your foreign bride is a dream that can be made a
reality. While the process of bringing your fiancée to your home
country can be complicated and lengthy, it is not an impossible task.
There are several stages in the application process and each step must
be handled with an uncompromised degree of detail and thoroughness.
Failing to complete all forms or providing inaccurate information will
delay the process and cause you unnecessary stress. Before you forge
ahead with your goal of bringing your dream fiancée home, take the
time to inform yourself on which visa you need, whether or not your
cause qualifies, and what the application process entails.Before you
can have your fiancée enter the United States and officially marry
her, she must have the k1 fiancee visa. Although there are other types
of visas, the k1 visa is the only accepted form of documentation that
will allow you to legally marry your partner in the US. If, for
example, you decide to marry your fiancée while she only has a
tourist, student or business visa, her legal status will become
questionable and potentially serious problems can result. To ensure
that your fiancée is not refused permanent resident status, or that
she is not deported back to her home country, you must obtain a k1
fiancee visa.




Before you can obtain a k1 visa, there are several eligibility conditions
that must be met. First, you and your fiancée must be free to marry each
other. This means that both partners must be unmarried, or that any ended
marriages have been finalized with divorce, annulment or death. Secondly,
you must have met with your fiancée in person within the last two years
before filing for the visa. There are some exceptions to this rule
including the clause that traveling to her home country would violate
long-established and legitimate customs, or that it would be impossible
for you to physically make the trip. Lastly, you and your fiancée must
marry within 90 days of her entrance to the United States. Note that you
can also apply to bring your fiancée's children to the country if they are
less than 21 years of age and unmarried.The first stage in the application
process begins when you receive your complete application package. It will
provide an interview date for the applicant and details of the visa. It
will instruct you that several documents are required including a valid
passport, birth certificate, divorce or death certificate if needed,
marriage certificate, police certificate from all places of residence
since age 16, proof of medical examination, evidence of financial support
(form I-864), affidavit of support from petitioner or sponsor, application
for immigrant visa and alien registration (form DS-230 part I II
completed), and two immigrant visa photos. Failure to produce any of these
required documents will render your application status incomplete and will
slow down the process and potentially jeopardize your chances of obtaining
the visa.




Marriage to a foreigner is made possible by obtaining a K1 fiancee visa.
Not only will it legally bring your fiancée into the United States, but it
will also be necessary if she hopes to find legal work in the future. The
whole process may seem complicated, but taking the time to inform yourself
and understand the various required stages will better your chances of
success.
