Planning to marry your American love? The K-1 visa can help! Here's a quick overview:

K-1 Visa Basics:

• Your fiancé(e) petitions for you with Form I-129F (USCIS).

• Upon approval, you can apply for the K-1 visa at a US embassy/consulate.

• This visa allows entry for 90 days to get married within that timeframe.

Your Stay in the US:

• The K-1 visa allows a 90-day stay to get married to your US citizen fiancé(e).

• After marriage, you can apply for a green card (lawful permanent residency).

Getting Your Green Card:

• After marriage, apply for adjustment of status (Form I-485) to become a green card holder.

• This process involves additional forms, documents, and USCIS interviews.

• Upon approval, you'll receive your green card granting lawful permanent residency.

Remember:

• This is a general guide. Consult an immigration attorney for specifics.
