Dallas Fiance Visas Attorney
Achieve the Best Outcome with Skilled Representation
A K-1 visa allows a U.S. citizen’s fiancé to enter the U.S. in order to get married. Once here, the fiancé and petitioner have 90 days to marry, after which the non-citizen fiancé can apply for permanent residency. The fiancé’s children may also apply for green cards through a K-2 nonimmigrant visa if they are under 21 years of age and unmarried. In addition, a K-3 visa allows those who have already married a U.S. citizen the ability to enter the United States while their immigration petition is pending.
To qualify for a K-1 or K-3 visa, a couple must show the following:
- The petitioner is a U.S. citizen
- The couple intends to get married within 90 days of entering the U.S.
- All parties are legally free to marry, meaning any previous marriages have been annulled or terminated by death or divorce.
- The couple has met in-person within the last two years, except when this violates the customs of the fiancé’s country of origin or the requirement would result in an extreme hardship.
Because these requirements can be complicated, it may be easier for a couple to marry first and then apply for a spousal petition. This, however, depends on each individual situation. By scheduling an initial consultation with our DFW immigration attorneys, we will listen to your situation and let you know your best options.
