K-1 Fiancé Visa
A non-immigrant visa that enables a U.S. citizen to bring their foreign fiancée to the U.S. for marriage and settle together. The K-1 Fiancé Visa is a great pathway to unite couples separated by borders. After approval, the procedure states that a couple must marry within 90 days of arrival, and after marriage, the spouse can fill out an application for ‘adjustment of status’ to become a permanent U.S. resident. The K-1 fiancé visa is the vital and foremost step towards building the future to live as a married couple in the U.S.
K-1 Fiancé Visa: Eligibility Criteria
- The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen.
- Both partners must have a clear and genuine intent to marry within the 90 days of the fiancé’s arrival in the U.S.
