Que tipo de visa tienes?\n\nEres colombiano no? por eso te hablo en espanol.\n\nSi tienes la visa B1-B2 esa es de turista, esa te permite estar en USA por 6 meses despues de 1 dia, ya rompiste la ley y estas ilegal o indocumentado.\n\nSi tienes otro tipo de visa dime y escribime a dfit00@yahoo.com ahi te puedo ayudar.

First you have to get her a K-1 Fiance Visa, whith which she can enter the country.  Then you have to marry her, and apply to adjust her status to permanent resident.  You must remain married for at least 2 years otherwise she will lose her legal status.\nUsually it takes about 6 months to 1 year to adjust status and receive permanent residency.

I've heard it can take up to 2 years. Are you trying to get your spouse here? visapro.com has a lot of good information.

I don't know why they require so many forms, but I am going through the same process to get my fiance here from Great Britain. We are in the final stages of the fiance visa but it has been such a long and financially straining process. They ask for one form and when that is processed they ask for another form, which was the same information as the first but this time the fee is doubled and then they ask for another form to make action on the first approved form before it can be sent to the National visa center and then on the the American Cosulate in the country your fiance is from. It all seems so repetative but I am glad we are doing it the right and legal way. I advise that you contact your state senators. We have been able to speed up our process with the help of our state immigration liason. They are able to make the calls necessary to make sure your fiance application doesn't just sit on any one's desk and they may even be able to expedite some of the processes. They have cut our wait down to four months (from the original speculated 8-12 months). Also keep track of any correspondance you and your fiance have had: letters, plane tickets to see them, pictures of you two together ect.  In the final interview they will ask for such documentations of a valid relationship so as to make sure it's not some "mail order" spouse thing. Best of luck to you, It's difficult but worth it. Hang in there.

That visa is null and void. You need to re-apply not as a K1(engaged to a US Citizen), but as a K3(Married to a USC).

You need a short stay Schengen visa, check the embassey websites, they should give you everything you need, I'm not actually sure if US citixens need a visa, if your american, I just got one for my kazakh girlfriend, it was £25 and took about 2 weeks, the list of required documents was quite extensive, check the embassey sites for the details

I went through this, I’m from Lebanon from the date my husband (my fiancé back then) sent the paperwork till I got the visa it was 8 months. It depends on the state you applied in, some states handle a lot of immigration paperwork so it takes more time, like in TX but fortunately our paperwork went through a different state and we got off faster than expected.

i'm american and married an egyptian citizen in egypt in 2005. he applied at the embassy at cairo and got his visa within about 2 months.it's possible ur husband could get turned down, but if your relationship is legitimate and the required papers are in order he should get it with no problems. if he gets approved at the interview, it only takes 10 days for them to send it to u. good luck

This is new to me. \n\nWhat is your status? Why does he need travel experience? Did he tried to  to come on work visa or immigration or student or visitor visa?\n\nWhat is his work experience in India, are you officially engaged?\n\nAsk lawyer if you can go to India and get married and how long will it take for him to come to Canada, can he accompany you as husband, you need Canadian Immigration lawyer.  What if he were to come as student and then you get married? Do not take any short cuts, tell lawyer you want every thing legal nothing that is questionable.\n\nSee a lawyer, get and lawyer who has, Indo -Canadian visa experience so he will not charge that much for research and other stuff find the fee structure do not give blank check.

You can petition her as a fiance. It is probably best to get a lawyer. My husband is from Mexico and he entered the country illegally, we married here and I petitioned him as my husband, he had to pay extra and write a statement apologizing for entering this way. I chose to join him in Mexico during his waiting time (5 mos) because he was not allowed to leave his country. He is now living here as a permanent resident, he can work legally and in 2 more years he can try to become a citizen.

Immigration does not care if you are ex-military for citizenship. Did you take the Citizenship Test yet? You are almost last on the priority list as you are already here in the states, not good news if you have a fiancee in a foreign country you want to Petition for Immigration. (Hint: Fiancee' much faster to get Visa than a Spouse, so get engaged only!) Los Angeles is the busiest Immigration Office (Laguna Niguel) in the states, so long wait. Los Angeles saves up Applications until they get a thousand or so, so they can swear you all in at the same time, so once your Application is signed off everything happens faster. Maybe 2 year wait?

I am marrying a Brit, and its the same process.  Go to the Immigration web site and read up on the K-1 visa.   http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis  This is the  only official site.  Plenty of people will try to give advice that they think is accurate when laws concerning the k-1 are very distinct from other types of immigration.  Its a lengthy, costly  process,(as are all Immigration processes) and depending on when the visa numbers are availible, is when he will be able to be here legally.  You don't have to buy any program.  But having legal assistance with the forms or an advocacy/ charitable group (Some Catholic Social Services do this) is a plus.  The forms are not confusing, but you will needed cashiers checks or money orders for the fees accompanying each form,, 2 passport photos taken of both of you within thirty days of the application, you will need a biographical for each of you with supporting documentation.  The I-29F,  A copy of his I-94 if he has entered legally, copies of your birthcertificates, ID, socials, Passports, divorce certificates if you were married, death certificate if you were  widowed, and or any other supporting docummentation listed on the forms. From Mexico he will need a cartilla (Mexico's Army service) or a waiver.  Every document and every money order or cashiers checks, should be photocopied in triplicate along with photos.  The reason it is in triplicate is so that you always have two copies of your paperwork.  One you carry with you to interviews and one put away safely.  You could also send one copy to your fiance, in case he needs it.  Generally his interview would be held in Ciudad Juarez unless he is already here.  If he is here w/o inspection or overstayed a visa or entered illegally he may have to pay a fine or may have to stay out of the country 10 years.  If he has been deported or under deportation, you will need a lawyer to perhaps get a pardon with Immigration.  This will also depend on his background check.  Good Luck
