Visa for fiance

How to get a US visa K1 and K2?

The visa is granted to a foreigner who is committed to an American citizen. If a citizen of the United States is engaged to marry a foreigner, he can make a K1 fiancé visa petition so that his fiancé can travel to the United States and get married. This visa is valid for 90 days following such entry.

After marriage, the American citizen may request a “Status Adjustment” so that his/her spouse can remain in the United States as a Legal Resident.
