What Is the K-1 Fiancée Visa?
The K1 fiance visa (also known as the K-1 fiancé(e) visa) is a non-immigrant visa a U.S. citizen can use to allow a foreign fiancée to travel to the United States for the specific purpose of marrying the U.S. citizen petitioner within 90 days. If you are a U.S. citizen engaged to a foreign national and getting married abroad is not a realistic option, it is possible the K-1 fiancée visa is the best way to accomplish the goal of bringing the person you love to the United States.
Do I need a K-1 fiancée visa lawyer?
Some people go through the K-1 visa process without the help of a lawyer. Most people who hire a good immigration lawyer are happy they made that decision. Whether you hire an immigration lawyer for your fiancée visa case is a personal decision. Do a consultation with a lawyer who has extensive experience with these visas who can explain the process and assess your situation, then make an informed choice. If you would like to do that consultation with us, we charge $250 for a one-hour consultation. During this consultation we will assess your case and analyze the specific strengths and weaknesses of the fiancée visa for your individual situation. You can call 503-749-7700 or visit pdximmigration.com/consultation to set up the consultation.
What are the K1 fiance visa requirements?
To file a K1 fiance visa petition you must be a U.S. citizen. In most cases, you need to have met your fiance, in person, sometime in the last two years. If either you or your fiance were previously married, you will need proof that those previous marriages were legally terminated. You must be able to prove you have sufficient income or assets to provide for your fiance after marriage. Finally, to navigate the k1 fiance visa process successfully, you will need to prove comprehensively that your relationship with your fiance is valid and that you both intend to marry.
