Can I Bring My Fiancé To The United States?

So, you've found the love of your life and they happen to be a citizen of another country. Now, you've decided to begin your journey together in the United States. One way to do this is by applying for a fiancé (K-1) visa. If you are already married, your significant other can apply for a visa and, in due course, permanent residence, through the USCIS’ family-based immigration program. The journey to bringing your loved one to the U.S. is straightforward but can be a long process with certain steps that cannot be avoided. After your loved one has agreed to move, it would be advisable to connect with an Immigration Law attorney. Your next call (after sharing the good news with your family) should be to Andres G. Hernandez, based in Missouri and Arizona. 


Andres G. Hernandez is an experienced Immigration Law attorney who can guide you through the process of bringing your loved one to the United States. He has helped numerous clients successfully obtain fiancé visas and permanent residence for their significant others.


The first step in this journey is to file a petition with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). This petition will establish that you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, and that you have a bona fide relationship with your fiancé/spouse. The USCIS will review your petition and determine if it meets the requirements for approval.

What Happens During the Fiancé Visa Application Process?

Firstly, prepare to file your petition. This must be undertaken simultaneously with another form - the Affidavit of Support (Form I-864). Andres G. Hernandez, an Immigration Law attorney based in Missouri and Arizona, will guide you through the finer details and the massive responsibility associated with the signing of this document. Regardless of changes in your personal life, such as divorce, you will still have the obligation to financially support your spouse until they acquire citizenship or finish 40 quarters of work.


Following the approval of your petition by the USCIS, your fiancé will need to visit a U.S. consulate or embassy within their home country for visa procurement. They may also need to satisfy certain health prerequisites, dependent on the unique circumstances. Once your fiancé is in the U.S, the next step is getting married, which must be done within a strict 90-day period without any exceptions. 


This process requires considerable coordination and it's beneficial to have the guidance of a seasoned attorney such as Andres G. Hernandez. His knowledge in the field of Immigration Law will facilitate your journey to the altar and your subsequent pursuit of a green card.
