Fiancé Visa Basics
What is A Fiancé Visa?
A Fiancé Visa (officially known as a K-1 Visa or Fiance Visa) is a non-immigrant visa that allows the foreign fiancé of a United States Citizen to enter the United States for the sole purpose of getting married. They are generally considered the quickest way to legally bring a foreign fiancé to the U.S. with the intention of marriage and immigration. There are a few requirements and steps you should know before applying, however, an experienced fiance visa attorney can work with you throughout the process and ensure you get your Fiance Visa as soon as possible.
Fiancé Visa Requirements
Generally, to qualify for a K-1 Visa petition filing and the eventual issuance of the K1 Visa:
The petitioner must be a U.S. Citizen.
Non-U.S. citizens are ineligible to petition on behalf of their foreign fiancees for a K-1 Visa. If you are a Legal Permanent Resident (Green Card holder) or a U.S. Citizen that is already married, please click here for more information on how to bring a foreign spouse to the United States: Spouse Visas;
Both parties must be free and able to marry.
This means any prior marriages have been terminated by annulment, divorce or death. Both parties must also be of legal age to marry or meet specific state law exceptions.
The petitioner is limited to the number of times they may file an I-129F petition.
A U.S. Citizen may only file one k1 petition (also known as the I-129F petition) within any two year period and is limited to a total of two I-129F petition filings in their lifetime, unless a waiver is granted;
The “bonafides” or authenticity of the relationship must be properly documented and demonstrated.
Items demonstrating this may include, but are not limited to, photos of the couple together and with friends and family members, communications, travel evidence, engagement or wedding plans, etc.
The couple must have met at least once in-person within two years prior to the K-1 Visa petition filing.
At least one in-person meeting between the couple must take place within two years prior to the filing. While there are in-person meeting waivers granted by the USCIS, they are extremely difficult to obtain and must meet very strict requirements.
The couple must express their intentions to marry each other.
Each partner must sign a document affirming their intent to marry within 90 days of the foreign fiancé's arrival in the U.S.;
No arrests or convictions for specific crimes.
The U.S. Citizen and / or fiancee can’t have specific types of crimes on their records (including ones “expunged” or where they are told the record “no longer exists”) that could render them ineligible to petition or to apply for the K1 Visa;
The petitioners must meet a minimum level of income.
The U.S. Citizen sponsor must meet statutory income requirements based upon their personal income on recent tax returns equaling at least 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. They may also use certain assets to offset any deficiencies in income. A joint sponsor may be used as well if the sponsor cannot meet this requirement on their own.
What Are The Necessary Steps To Get A Fiance Visa?
There are two major steps to get a K-1 Visa for the United States:
1. I-129F Petition Filing at USCIS
The first step involves the filing of an I-129F Petition by the U.S. Citizen (also known as the “Petitioner”) on behalf of the foreign citizen fiancé (also known as the “Beneficiary”). This petition is filed with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
It must be sent to the appropriate USCIS mail distribution center which is currently the Dallas, Texas lockbox. Once it is received, it is forwarded to the appropriate USCIS Service Center for further processing. Currently, the vast majority of I-129F petitions are sent to and adjudicated out of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) California Service Center.
2. US Embassy Processing and Issuance of the Fiancee Visa
Once the USCIS has approved the I-129F Petition, the second step involves the filing of the foreign K1 Visa application, which includes several forms, evidence of a bonafide relationship, a medical examination, police and security clearances, an affidavit of support, other evidence, the foreign fiancee’s interview with a consular officer and the eventual issuance of the K-1 Visa at his or her country’s U.S. Embassy or Consulate.
How Long Does A K-1 Visa Take?
In order to determine how long it takes to get a Fiancee Visa, you would simply add the estimated time it takes to get the I-129F Petition approved at the USCIS, the National Visa Center, and the estimated time to have the visa issued at the US Embassy abroad.
You can learn more about specific times by clicking here: K-1 Visa Processing Times. With our firm's specialized expertise with Fiancé Visas, we ensure expedited preparation and processing for your case.
How A K-1 Visa Works When Issued
The foreign fiancé is free to enter the United States once a valid K-1 Visa is issued. The K1 Visa is valid for a 6 month period and good for one entry into the United States. Once the foreign fiancee enters the United States., the marriage between the U.S. Citizen and the Foreign fiancé must take place within 90 days of the foreign fiancee’s entry.
If the foreign fiancé does not marry the U.S. Citizen within 90 days, or if he or she marries someone other than the U.S. Citizen Petitioner, the foreign fiancee must leave the United States after 90 days.

My wife and I are super grateful to Solomon Immigration for their expertise and professionalism during the last 9 months or so as we navigated our journey towards a green card.Our paralegal Daniela Morales was simply fantastic, she always had answers for us as and when we needed them and if we were unable to reach her she would always call back no matter how busy she was.Daniela was an absolute joy to work with and I am so so glad she was assigned to us, there are no words we can say to express our gratitude to her.The process of obtaining the green card was a lot of work, there were many hoops to jump through as expected, but having said that it was not as difficult as other people made out and I think that was because of Daniela and her team. Her experience and professionalism made us feel at ease during the whole process.We would highly recommend Solomon Immigration. Thank you Daniela... we are super grateful for you!Christina and Jamie
The experience was really great it only took 3 and half months for us to get my wife a green card. They are very professional and kind people !

The filing process and gathering required documents took two month and the entire process from filing till approval notice got only 6 month.

We received detailed checklists of everything we needed to provide which made it so easy to compile all our paperwork. I could not recommend Solomon Law, and Deysi, enough!!
Absolute EXCELLENCE in professionalism and actual care for us and our case. Our Senior Paralegal, Deysi Diaz, in Texas, was more like an attorney in her level of expertise and conduct, whilst also being able to relate to us and our situation. She's the type of person my wife and I would love to catch up with and shout her a nice dinner for all the help she gave us.Plus being super-patient with us as we navigated our first time doing any of this!We went through so much testing, yet she reassured us and made us feel calm and at peace through our entire process - Especially with all the changes happening with Immigration this past year (2025-2026).The model and method Solomon Immigration uses, regarding all of the paperwork handling and other steps for presenting the required evidence, made it very easy for us to complete and get in logical order.We couldn't recommend another Immigration law firm more highly and also couldn't recommend any other Senior Paralegal than Deysi. We're retaining Solomon Immigration, and Deysi, for our next steps, also. Thanks again Deysi, we love you!

If you’re navigating the U.S. immigration system, especially in today’s environment, you need more than just a lawyer, you need a team that truly knows the law and fights for you. Michael Solomon, Allison Feliciano, and his team are exactly that.Our case was anything but simple. We received a Notice of Intent to Deny on our I-485 that left us blindsided and terrified.

Cannot recommend Solomon Immigration Law enough! I contacted them late last year to apply for a marriage-based green card for my wife, and the entire process, from gathering evidence, to submitting the application, to the interview, to finally receiving the green card, took just under six months. Everyone we worked with was professional, communicative, and gave us clear instructions every step of the way.A special thank you to our paralegal, Daniela Morales, who was incredibly responsive over email and patiently answered all of my many, many questions. I'm sure I tested her patience with the sheer volume of questions I sent, but she always got back to me quickly and in detail. Having someone that reliable in our corner made a stressful process so much easier.Thanks as well to Rakia Turner, who gave us great advice during our mock interview and helped us feel prepared going in.I'd recommend this firm without hesitation to anyone going through the marriage-based green card process. And if you can, ask for Daniela Morales!

This team truly did an amazing job and was very professional and knowledgeable. We had an entire team helping us every step of the way but Stephanie Salgado was our main point of contact.

We chose Solomon, not because of the cost, but because of the high reviews. After working with Solomon for the last 12-13 months to get our k1 Visa, I would fully concur with the rating. Throughout the process they helped to lead us through the step-by-step process to get our Visa, including quickly answering a lot of our simple/dumb questions. I don't know how someone would get through the K1 visa without the help of a Lawyer. The Solomon staff was always kind, respectful and genuinely interested and compassionate of navigating the process. We will definitely use them for our Green Card process.

Great experience...smooth and easy transition from K1 Visa to Green Card.
All the team members who assisted us did so with great professionalism and kindness.

I had Solomon law firm help me migrate from Ghana to the States and they did an excellent work , their response amazing and really know what to do in tight terms .
God showed me an image of a women years ago. i thought i was a fool for thinking this person could be real in any way shape or form. then one day i met her on a dating app. she loved me from day one. i didnt even have a passport! she is from uganda! i didnt know what i was doing at all! it took me a year to learn the basics of international dating. then it came time to make this relationship REAL! i searched for a lawyer to help me with the paperwork. only ONE called me back! i talked with Mr Solomon and he is a good guy! the process was long but Solomon's people kept me updated, answered all my questions! even when i made a mistake on filling forms out. they saw it and helped me fix it before submitting the forms! as i write this my fiancee is all set to come to the USA after 3 year 3 months. after she gets here Solomon's people will help with the green card application stuff too! truly truly truly thankful for the help! worth every penny!! God Bless and believe in love no matter the distance!!
We paid one set fee for all of the forms needed; prices were very affordable in comparison to local law firms. We did everything online, which conveniently accommodated our busy schedules. We started our process in May 2025 & received green card in March 2026. Our paralegal Allison F. was amazing! She was always quick to respond via email & answered all of our numerous questions. She walked us through every step & made the process relatively easy & pleasant. Tysm Allison... you are the best🫶

A huge thank you to Deysi, Michael, and the team at Solomon Immigration Law for their expert guidance and timely help with my husband's green card processing!The first step was a consultation call with Michael. He personally reviewed our case, providing us with his opinion, an overview of the process, and a realistic timeline.From then on, Deysi was our assigned paralegal and point of contact. We had a one-on-one call with her as well, where she gave us a clear idea of the timeline and what to expect. She was very approachable and we did not have to hesitate reach out to her with any questions, big or small.Most importantly, Deysi is very well-versed with the application process and all its nuances. Even when we were met with some delays and had to go through additional paperwork, she helped us address all the requirements appropriately. We always received prompt and thorough responses that helped us understand the process and addressed all concerns.From the initial consultation till receipt of the green card, we had expert guidance and support from the team at each step!A long and daunting process became so much easier with a caring, knowledgeable, and experienced team who gave us personalized and focused assistance throughout!

For the K-1 visa process it's the best money I've ever spent this is a top notch immigration lawyer recommended by a friend. I would definitely come back here again they are very detail oriented and personalbe thanks again.
When my fiancée and I started the K-1 visa process, we initially thought we might be able to handle it ourselves. We quickly realized how detailed and nuanced the process is—and how easy it would be to make a mistake that could lead to delays.Hiring Allison was one of the best decisions we made. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and incredibly organized from start to finish. She guided us through every step—from filing the initial petition to preparing for the consular interview—and made sure everything was done correctly.Beyond her expertise, Allison was simply wonderful to work with. She was kind, approachable, and always willing to schedule a call to walk us through questions or concerns. During the inevitable government delays, she helped ease our anxiety by explaining what was happening and what to expect next. Having her steady guidance made a stressful process feel manageable.Thanks to her support, we’re now happily together in the U.S. and married. If you’re considering a K-1 visa or any family-based immigration process, we highly recommend working with Allison and her team. You’ll be in excellent hands.
We engaged with Solomon Immigration Law firm for our concurrent green card filing. We were very satisfied with the service we received and we were approved without any issues of RFE's.Wanted to especially thank our paralegal Sindy who worked on our case. They were responsive to any questions or doubts we had throughout the process and educated us on how the process works and what to expect. The whole process was very smooth and organized from gathering our evidence and filling out the necessary forms to having it reviewed by the attorney and submitting it. We were also given a mock interview call to help prepare us for the interview. We are thankful to them for helping us get our approval and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to file for a spousal visa.
We are extremely grateful to Solomon Immigration Law for guiding us through our entire immigration journey — from the very beginning of the K-1 fiancé visa process all the way to receiving our Permanent Resident Card.From day one, their team was professional, organized, and truly supportive. Immigration can be stressful and overwhelming, but they made everything clear, answered all our questions patiently, and handled every step with great care and attention to detail.A very special thank you to Allison Feliciano for her dedication, responsiveness, and kindness. She was always available to explain the process, follow up on documents, and make sure everything stayed on track. Her support meant so much to us during this important chapter of our lives.We highly recommend Solomon Immigration Law to anyone looking for knowledgeable, trustworthy, and compassionate immigration attorneys. Thank you for helping us start our new life together!— Rana & Erkin
Solomon Law was fantasic from beginning to end. Our Paralegal, Stephanie was professional and helped us along the way. They made the K1 and green card process to simple. I would recommend Solomon Immigration Law to anyone applying for the K1 visa.
My wife and I are so happy with our outcome. This firm is an incredible oiled machine. My biggest advice is to trust the process and follow their step-by-step instructions. Once you sign up you’ll be assigned to a paralegal that walks you through your preparation process. They spell everything out for you clearly.You can trust that you are being walked through the wilderness by a firm with deep experience. I recommend them with full confidence. My wife and I will be reaching out to them in the future.Thank you Stephanie, Katarina, Rakia and Mr. Solomon.Great team!Sincerely,Brad and Sachi
Working with Allison was overall a professional experience. She was courteous and respectful in her communication. While our needs ultimately required a different direction, I appreciate the time and effort that was put into our case and wish her and the firm continued success.
Meu esposo e eu entramos com o processo de vistoK1 para noiva e contamos com a assessoria da Allison da Solomon ImmigrationO trabalho dela foi impecável, já estou morando nos Estados Unidos há 6 meses e até já tenho meu greencardTodo processo levou 10 mesesMuito obrigada
Catie Carmago helped my husband and I through our entire I-130 and Green Card application process. She was very professional, knowledgeable, and was great support throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend Solomon Immigration Law!
We had a wonderful experience with Solomon Immigration Law. They helped us apply for a marriage-based green card, and the entire process was incredibly smooth and easy. We were approved and received the green card in a little over two months, which exceeded our expectations. A special thank you to our paralegal, Catie, who was helpful, responsive, and supportive every step of the way. We truly felt taken care of throughout the process and highly recommend their team.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Immigration Law Firm – Truly Life-Changing SupportI cannot recommend Solomon Immigration Law and their incredible team highly enough. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to support my husband and our family through the immigration process, which can be extremely overwhelming and stressful.Solomon and his team were professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely caring every step of the way. They took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of our questions with patience, and made us feel confident and supported throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail and commitment to getting things done right gave us so much peace of mind.What truly sets this firm apart is how much they actually care about their clients. This wasn’t just paperwork to them — they understood how important this journey was for our lives and our future, and it showed in everything they did.Thanks to Solomon Immigration Law, my husband’s immigration process was handled smoothly and successfully. We are beyond grateful for their hard work, dedication, and compassion. If you are looking for an immigration attorney you can truly trust, look no further. This team deserves far more than 5 stars
I had a great overall experience working with this immigration law firm for my spouse’s green card process. Catie, the paralegal, was especially helpful—she was responsive, patient, and always willing to explain things clearly. Attorney Rakia Tuner was also wonderful to work with and provided knowledgeable guidance that made me feel confident throughout the process.Everything was handled professionally, and I truly appreciate the support from the team. The only suggestion I would have is that it would have been nice to receive the biometric appointment notification a little further in advance. Other than that, I am very satisfied and would definitely recommend this firm to anyone seeking immigration assistance.
Catie Camargo,was instrumental in us getting approved on the k1 and the Green Card.Looking forward to having you help us with the next step. Thank you and we really appreciate it.Solomon Immigration Law firm recommended!!
Allison was a joy to work with. My fiance received her K-1 Visa approval in just over 4 months and greencard in around 2.5 months. User friendly dashboard to upload documents.
I had a wonderful experience with Solomon Law Firm. They clearly, kindly, and expertly guided my K-1 process from start to finish. I highly recommend my paralegal Allison Feliciano, she was responsive and did an excellent job helping navigate a very complex process. I highly recommend this law firm. Thank you Mr. Solomon, Allison, and team!
Could not be more grateful to the Solomon team for all of their support throughout our immigration journey!!!! Our paralegal Stephanie was just incredible and it has been great working with her for nearly two years now. She is SO knowledgeable about the system, and provided great advice for formatting/prioritizing documents and a clear idea of what to expect at each step (timelines, preparation for biometrics, interview, etc.).Stephanie is also very responsive and has responded to many, many panicked emails from me over the years. Honestly, that was just kindness, she totally did not have to do that -- really demonstrated that she understood what a huge deal this was for us (to be together!!) and never made us feel bad about having questions or asking for additional clarification.We also appreciated that Solomon ONLY does marriage-based immigration - they are confident in their method and they have achieved great results, for a pretty modest fee. It was also super great that they were able to help us out with our adjustment without additional cost.Could not recommend them more to couples who are anxious about immigration - Solomon has your back. And please give Stephanie a raise!!
I wish there was a way to give them 10 stars! Mr Solomon and the entire Solomon Immigration Law team was so exceptional! I will be explicit, so this will be long! I contacted Solomon Immigration Law, for them to help me file form I-130 for the CR1 Spousal visa for my wife who was residing in Cameroon. My case was assigned to Tamara Vickers. Tamara was so exceptional and responded to all of our questions on time! On April 2nd 2024, the case was sent to USCIS and I was provided a receipt number. After this stage, it took a very long time and it was a depressing moment! Exactly 15 months later, on the Second of July 2025, our case was approved. Due to high volume of cases, our case was reassigned to Jennifer Funez. Jennifer did a great job preparing documents for our form DS260 and other NVC required documents. On July 23rd 2025, our form DS260, affidavit of support and civil documents were sent to NVC. On August 4 2025, NVC sent a message saying our case was Documentarily Qualified and was placed in queue to be scheduled for interview at the U.S embassy in Cameroon. On October 23 2025, my wife was scheduled for an interview which was to take place on December 10 2025. My case was reassigned to Daniela Morales and Daniela did an excellent job in preparing all the documents needed for the interview. Everything was well organized. Rakia Turner did a mock interview with my wife which worked perfectly while Daniela was still answering our general questions. On December 10 2025, despite the fact that it was a period where Immigration was very tough, my wife was issued a spousal visa on the day of interview without the embassy asking her to bring any additional document. Two days later, on December 12th, she picked up her visa and on the 29th of December 2025, she joined me in the U.S. I want to thank God Almighty for leading me to this excellent law firm, and I thank Mr Solomon, Tamara, Jennifer, Rakia and Daniela Morales for always being there to answer all the crazy questions we had!
Thank you thank you and thank you for bringing me and wife shirlene together. I am always appreciate your hard work and definitely will recommend a friend or family to you guys. The process on the CR1 was smooth and easy.
Very helpful and informative. Thank you!
The Solomon Immigration Law lawyers and paralegals are very efficient and experienced in all aspects of today's immigration environment. They were all professional from the beginning of the process to the very end which resulted in my becoming a US citizen. I highly recommend Solomon Immigration Law. LK
I highly recommend this attorney. They helped me obtain my green card through marriage. My wife is a U.S. citizen and I am Mexican. The process was clear and smooth, and they kept me informed every step of the way. Thanks to their help, I am now a permanent resident.
Allison was a first-class professional who handled everything with grace and top-tier service.The entire process was seamless and genuinely refreshing. She is extremely knowledgeable and truly an asset.I didn’t miss a beat throughout the entire process. I would commend her again and again to anyone looking for trusted hands to lead them through this process. I highly recommend Allison.
Our case seemed simple but became complicated. We called or wrote a lot to the point of being annoying and we knew it but the staff and lawyers were patient and understanding with us. They never gave us false hope or tried to tell us what we wanted to hear they always told us the truth and what we really needed to know. They do not make the immigration laws or requirements but they have a deep understanding of those laws and requirement’s. They showed us they cared about our family and helped guide us to where we needed to be. I can now finally say my wife was approved. It is all thanks to the dedication of this law firm. Sure we hit bumps along the way the embassy asked for things we didn’t have but we were guided on how to fix it and the right way to go about fixing it with care. One thing I can say is every detail matters. Even when it seems like everything will be simple immigration can change or ask for something that was unexpected but be patient because this law firm will do everything in their power to help correct the situation. They truly care about families I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you all who worked so hard to help my family.
When you rely on a firm or people within that firm to care for things you struggle to understand, and processes that encourage confusion and disorganization, you basically give those people blind faith to guide you in the direction that ultimately allows you success. In our case it was a K1 visa for my fiance, now wife. As you know, it is a long road and one that is paved with as many uncertainties as there are forms and photocopies. Hire the wrong people and you probably won't know it until it's too late. Throughout our entire process, Solomon Law handled our case with care, compassion, and competence. For us, it was Allison, and she guided us through every minefield with a unique patience and concern. We are indebted to her for taking care of us beyond what the professional fees might dictate. She was consistently great and made the miserable path this government has created a little more sensible and a lot more acceptable - even predictable. We highly recommend!
Extremely impressed with this firm. We worked with two other firms prior, and they were difficult to reach and slow to respond. After those experiences, we were hesitant to try again, but working with Catie has been such a relief. She is outstanding. She responds quickly, works seamlessly with our attorney, and always makes us feel comfortable reaching out with questions or for guidance on next steps. Having Catie as our paralegal has made an enormous difference. She files paperwork promptly, clearly walks us through each step, and ensures nothing falls through the cracks. The additional cost is absolutely worth it. For the first time, I feel fully supported and confident that our case is being handled properly. With previous firms, we often found ourselves managing the case on our own and researching next steps without clear answers. This firm has been a completely different experience, and we are so grateful for the care and professionalism they provide.
Outstanding support from start to finishWorking with Stephanie throughout my visa and Green Card application was an exceptional experience. From the very beginning, she was knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly supportive. Her clear guidance, attention to detail, and prompt responses made a complex and often stressful process feel organised and manageable.Stephanie was always patient, reassuring, and proactive, ensuring that every step was completed correctly and on time. Thanks to her dedication and expertise, my Green Card application was approved smoothly and successfully.I am extremely grateful for her support and would highly recommend Stephanie to anyone seeking immigration or visa assistance.
We’re so grateful for all the help with our IR-1 case. The process went smoothly, communication was clear, and we always felt supported. My husband is finally here in the U.S. for the first time, and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you Sindy for helping make this moment possible!
I had an amazing experience with Solomon Immigration Law, especially with my attorney, Allison. She was always available, patient, and answered every single one of my questions throughout the entire process. I truly felt supported and cared for. The whole team was quick, precise, and incredibly professional. They made a stressful journey feel manageable, and I’m so grateful for all their help. Highly recommend!
Thanks to Solomon Immigration Law - and particularly, Allison - our visa application was successful! We said to Allison many times over the process that we could not be going through this process without her, and I mean that wholeheartedly.Allison guided us every step of the way, answering endless questions (even if they seemed ridiculous), having several meetings, reviewing every document, and preparing us each step along the way. The visa process can be overwhelming, confusing, stressful, and at times, disheartening, but every time we felt any of these things we said to ourselves, "But we have Allison."I could not recommend Solomon Immigration Law and Allison more. She was our beacon of hope and guiding light! Thank you for everything, Allison!!! We <3 you!
I’m a UK national who has just gotten his CR-1 visa care of the United States government and let me tell you - Solomon Law was worth every single penny. Me and my wife had the great fortune of working with a paralegal called Allison F throughout the entire process and she couldn’t have been more supportive, put us more at ease, or done more for us to ensure that we got the visa across the finish line. Ten out of ten. Would seek their legal advice again.
Stephanie Salgado did an excellent job taking care of us by going above and beyond! Thank you! Bless Solomon Immigration for the help!
Stephanie was wonderful to work with. She was highly professional and communicated very well with us throughout the process. I would very much recommend Solomon Immigration and Stephanie!

Honestly speaking, since the day we started working with Solomon Immigration Law for our marriage process, our experience has been nothing short of amazing. Every single person we came in contact with was kind, respectful, and professional.A very special thank you to our caseworker, Stephanie Salgado — she is truly an incredible person with a wonderful personality and deep knowledge of immigration law.

I am thrilled to share my outstanding experience with Solomon Immigration Law regarding our recent visa adjustment application process. From start to finish, their professionalism and dedication were evident, making what could have been a daunting journey remarkably smooth and efficient.The team at Solomon Immigration Law, especially our assigned Paralegal, Sindy Estrada, demonstrated an exceptional understanding of immigration law and provided clear guidance every step of the way. They were always available to answer my questions and took the time to explain each part of the process thoroughly. Their attention to detail and commitment to my case ensured that everything was handled promptly and accurately.I was particularly impressed with their proactive approach and timely updates, which kept me informed and at ease throughout the entire process. Thanks to their expertise, our fiancé’s visa was approved in just about 8 months, a testament to their skill and efficiency. The adjustment process from the fiancé visa to my wife receiving her legal residency took only about 6 additional months. It felt as if every time we ran into a roadblock, the Solomon team already had a play from an established playbook to get us through to the next step. Their more than reasonable rates and fees were by far worth every penny.I highly recommend Solomon Immigration Law to anyone seeking assistance with immigration matters. Their dedication to their clients and deep knowledge of the law makes them an invaluable partner in navigating the complexities of the immigration process. Thank you, especially to Sindy, and everyone else at Solomon Immigration Law, for your help making our dream a reality!

Frequently Asked Questions About The K-1 Fiancé Visa
Are K-1 fiancé Visas ever issued to couples who have not met in person?
There are extraordinary and extremely limited circumstances in which I-129F petitions are approved and Fiancee Visas have been issued to couples who have never met in person.
For example, Fiancee Visas may be issued under rare instances where a couple has not met in person if the petitioner has a severe medical condition that makes it virtually impossible for them to travel. In this case, the petition would require that a waiver of the in-person meeting be requested and granted.
Can K1 Visas be extended or renewed after the initial 90 days of entry if there is no marriage?
No. If there is no marriage within the 90 days of entry, there are only two legal options: 1. If the couple still wish to marry, they could still marry each other but must then file an additional petition at the time of the filing for the adjustment of status to a marriage green card. 2. If the U.S. Citizen and fiancee have decided they will not marry at any time in the future, the foreign fiancé must leave the country immediately.
If the foreign fiancee leaves the country, they may not re-enter the U.S. again under the same U.S. fiance Visa. They may, however, re-enter the U.S. after approval of a completely new K-1 Visa by starting the entire process again with the same Petitioner or a new Petitioner.
Can I work with a K-1 Fiancé Visa?
Yes, after you marry you can apply for a work permit by completing Form I-765 (Application for Employment Authorization) at the same time you file your I-485 Form (adjustment to Legal Permanent Resident status aka the “green card”). Once issued, your work authorization is valid for a maximum period of 5 years or until your marriage green card is issued. Once the green card is issued you no longer require a work permit to work. If you have additional questions reach out to an experienced immigration lawyer for more detailed answers.
Can I travel once I enter the United States with a K-1 Fiancé Visa?
You may travel within the United States after you enter. However, you may not leave the United States until after you marry, apply for, and receive, a travel permit by completing Form I-131 (Application for Advance Parole) at the same time you file your I-485 Form (adjustment to Legal Permanent Resident status aka the “green card”).
Once issued, your travel authorization is normally valid for a period of 1-2 years, unless it is issued a “combo card” (with work permit) and may be renewed until your marriage green card is issued. Once the green card is issued you no longer require a travel permit to re-enter the United States.
Can same-sex couples apply for a Fiance Visa?
Yes, same-sex couples can apply for a Fiancé Visa (K-1 Visa) to the United States. The process is the same as for opposite-sex couples. As long as the couple meets the eligibility requirements and can provide evidence of a genuine relationship, they can apply for a Fiancé Visa regardless of their sexual orientation.
What are the most common reasons a K1 Fiance Visa might get denied?
K-1 Fiancé Visa applications undergo a thorough examination, which could result in denial for various reasons. Common causes include incomplete or incorrect documentation, medical or criminal issues, poor interview experiences, or insufficient evidence of a genuine relationship.
Discrepancies in provided information or not being able to meet or exceed the income requirements (or not presenting them properly) can also lead to denial, as can failure to resolve previous marriages. All of the above emphasizes the need for visa applicants for meticulous preparation and adherence to legal requirements with the assistance of an experienced marriage visa lawyer to improve your chances of success.
