K-1 Fiancé(e) Visa Support

What is the K-1 Fiancé(e) Visa?

The K-1 visa is for foreign nationals engaged to U.S. citizens. It allows the foreign fiancé(e) to enter the United States for the purpose of marrying within 90 days. After marriage, the individual may apply to adjust status to obtain a green card.

2. USCIS approves and sends the case to the National Visa Center (NVC)
3. NVC forwards the case to the U.S. embassy/consulate abroad
4. Fiancé(e) attends interview and receives K-1 visa
5. Couple marries in the U.S. within 90 days of arrival
