Fiancee Visa

What is a Fiancé Visa?

The K-1 fiancé(e) visa allows a U.S. citizen to bring their foreign fiancé(e) to the United States. Once they arrive, you must marry within 90 days, after which your fiancé(e) can apply for a Green Card to become a lawful permanent resident.

Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for a K-1 fiancé(e) visa, you must meet the following criteria:

• The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen.
• Both parties must be legally free to marry.
• You must have met your fiancé(e) in person within the last two years (with limited exceptions).
• You intend to marry within 90 days of your fiancé(e) entering the U.S.
