Fiancé(e) Visa Services
Bringing Loved Ones Together with Compassion and Expertise
The K-1 Fiancé(e) Visa allows the foreign fiancé(e) of a U.S. citizen to enter the United States for a period of 90 days, during which the couple must marry. Following the marriage, the foreign spouse may apply for adjustment of status to become a lawful permanent resident (green card holder).
Step-by-Step Overview of the Fiancé(e) Visa Process
-
Filing the Petition
The U.S. citizen must first file Form I-129F, Petition for Alien Fiancé(e), with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Once approved, the petition is forwarded to the National Visa Center (NVC). -
Processing by the National Visa Center (NVC)
The NVC conducts initial processing and then sends the approved petition to the appropriate U.S. Embassy or Consulate in the foreign fiancé(e)’s home country. -
Embassy Notification and Interview Preparation
Upon receipt of the approved petition, the U.S. Embassy will send an information packet to the foreign fiancé(e) outlining the documents and requirements for the visa interview. Once all documents are gathered and the fiancé(e) confirms readiness, the Embassy schedules a visa interview. -
Interview Scheduling and Issuance
After the Embassy receives confirmation that all required documentation has been gathered, a visa interview will be scheduled. A U.S. consular officer will review the case and conduct the interview. If approved, the K-1 visa will be issued and the passport returned with the visa enclosed.
