Fiancé Visa (K Visa - I-129F)
The K Visa is a non-immigrant visa which allows the fiancé of a United States citizen to enter the United States so the couple may wed. This visa is also available to the spouse of a United States citizen.
The K Visa process requires two parts. First, the application must be filed for approval within the United States. Next, the fiancé will be required to interview at the United States Embassy within their country of origin. In order for the petition to be approved, both parties must be free to wed, have met in person within the last two years and have the intention to marry.
Once the fiancé enters the United States, the couple has 90 days to legally marry. Once married, they may apply for permanent residency within the United States. The beneficiary will receive legal status at the United States Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS) Office closest to the city where the couple lives without being required to travel outside the country.
