• The length of time it takes us to obtain a fiancé(e) visa depends on the state in which you reside, the country in which your fiancé(e) lives and the immigration processing center where the application is processed. 

• The fiancé and fiancée must each demonstrate ability to marry and intent to do so within 90 days of the alien’s U.S. entry.

• The fiancé and fiancée must prove that they have met within the previous two years.

This visa is a temporary nonimmigrant visa granted for a specific purpose.

• Within 90 days of entry, the fiancé or fiancée must marry the petitioner inside the United States.

• The fiancé (or fiancée) is obligated to either marry the petitioner or go home. 

• If the fiancé (or fiancée) does not marry the Petition, he or she will neither be able to adjust status to legal permanent residency nor change status to any other visa classification.

In the case of a K-1 fiancé visa, a nonimmigrant (temporary) visa is issued even though the fiancé has immigrant intent.

• The K visa suspends the usual rule pertaining to nonimmigrants denying visas to those who express or are considered to possess immigrant intent.

Children of the K-1 spouse can enter with a K-2 visa.
