K-1 Fiancé Visa Services

The K-1 fiancé visa is a nonimmigrant visa that allows a U.S. citizen to bring their foreign fiancé(e) to the United States for the purpose of marriage. At KW Immigration Law PC, we guide couples through each step of this detailed and time-sensitive process to help them begin their lives together in the U.S.

We offer trusted legal counsel for preparing, filing, and navigating the K-1 visa process from petition to interview and beyond, always tailored to the needs of each unique couple.

What Is a K-1 Fiancé Visa? The K-1 visa permits a foreign national engaged to a U.S. citizen to enter the United States with the condition that the couple marries within 90 days of arrival. Once married, the foreign spouse may apply for adjustment of status to obtain a green card.

Eligibility Requirements for K-1 Visa:

• The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen (not a permanent resident)
• Both individuals must be legally free to marry
• The couple must have met in person within the past two years (some exceptions apply)

• Filing the Petition: U.S. citizen files Form I-129F with USCIS
• Petition Approval: USCIS forwards the approved petition to the National Visa Center (NVC)
• Consular Processing: The foreign fiancé(e) applies for a visa at the U.S. embassy or consulate
• K-1 Visa Interview: An in-person interview is conducted to evaluate the legitimacy of the relationship
• Entry and Marriage: Once approved, the foreign fiancé(e) enters the U.S. and must marry within 90 days
