Marriage/Fiancé Visas

Congratulations on your upcoming marriage!

Each year over 200,000 marriages take place between U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents and non-U.S. citizens. Because a spouse is classified as an "immediate relative" under the law, there are no long waiting periods to obtain a visa as there are in many areas of family-based immigration.

However, because of the relative speed in obtaining a green card through marriage, the U.S. immigration authorities carefully scrutinize these unions. Before you obtain the right to enter the United States, whether just to get married or to stay permanently, you will have to go through a lengthy process of submitting application forms and paperwork. Many couples find this process confusing and difficult, but the process becomes much easier if you let me help you. For U.S. $1500.00, (plus fees that must be paid to the government and other costs), my office will guide you through this confusing area.

Fiance visas (K-1) are for U.S. citizens who wish to bring their fiances to the United States to marry. This visa allows the foreign citizen to enter the U.S., marry within 90 days, and apply for a green card in the U.S. You may also want to apply for a K-3 marriage visa for your spouse. These visas may allow you to bring your spouse to the United States quicker than the traditional immigrant visa route.
