K-1 Visa

A K-1 visa, also known as a fiancé(e) visa, allows a foreign citizen to enter the United States to marry their U.S. citizen partner. The couple must intend to marry within 90 days of the foreign fiancé(e)'s arrival in the U.S. To obtain the K-1 visa, the U.S. citizen must file a petition, and the process involves background checks and interviews. Once married, the foreign spouse can apply for a green card to live and work in the U.S. This visa is designed to facilitate the reunification of couples intending to marry.
