To simply become married, you must file a petition with the United States Citizen and Immigration Services on behalf of your fiance to be granted a 90-day nonimmigrant status. This means that you are allowed to marry within this 90-day period, but they must leave the country before the 90 days are complete.\n\nIf your fiance is planning to live here in the United States permanently after you are married, he must file to become a permanent resident. When this is approved, your fiance will be granted a 2-year conditional residency permit. When the two years has completed, the goverment will again determine whether your marriage is not based solely upon your fiance's wishes to become a citizen, and then he can apply for true permanent residency. After this is approved, is a permanent resident, and after a waiting period of 7 years, he may apply for citizenship through naturalization.\n\nFor more information on this, visit the USCIS website on this subject at:\nhttp://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=39c0194d3e88d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCRD&vgnextchannel=4f719c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD\n\nI hope this information helps and good luck!

It all depends on what nationality the foreigner is and where they plan on getting married. The basics are that one of you needs to get into the other country legally, which may require just a passport or maybe a visa. Once there, you need to get a marriage license following the rules of that country and have the marriage solemnized by a priest or judge, etc. Each country has a different process for allowing new spouses to live in the country.

Yes, Brits, just get out of the country and leave the Irish to rule themselves.\n\nYou had to do it to my country India, and I am sure that you'll have to do it with Ireland too.\n\nst

I need some more information, click add information and tell me how you're in the U.S. now... tourist visa or other visa... and if you met here, whether you were engaged before your visit or not, etc.\n\nOK thanks for the info. I would not recommend marrying now, because it could be considered fraud... a tourist visa implies that you are not intending to stay, if you were already engaged, it would look bad. So the question is where to get married... choose which nation you want to be married in and then ask for a fiancee visa there... I don't know what the legal process is like in Italy, but here in Argentina, I married my wife with a tourist visa, they don't have a fiancee visa or any legal recognition of affianced people (they just say "novio/novia", the same as boyfriend or girlfriend). You'll want to be prepared to spend some time in Italy if you marry there, however, because it's a fairly long process. The spouse visa is two different applications, in the first one you'll fill out a bunch of forms, including information on all former spouses, everywhere you've ever lived, every job you've ever had, and a photo they'll give you specifics on. It's $380. Bring wedding photos and copies of letters proving you love eachother. If they approve the initial filing, then you have to get a criminal record check from any nation you've lived in for more than six months... so you'll be looking at least at getting one from Italy. Here in Argentina it's a two month process, but Ireland processed our request (my wife lived their for eight months a couple of years ago) from one day to the next when they received the request by mail. You'll have to provide proof that you've had certain vaccinations, have a medical examination, and you'll have to swear you've never been a member of a communist or terrorist organization. She will have to fill out papers proving that she, by herself, makes enough money for the both of you and any other household members to live 20% above the poverty line. This is legally binding; if you ever have to use a public service, such as welfare or food stamps, the government will sue your wife. Then you pay $380 again and wait for approval.\n\nGo to USCIS.gov and look for the following papers to get an idea what you'll have to fill out.\n\ni-130\nDS-230\nG325a\n\nIf you want to marry in the U.S., she has to file a fiancee visa in the U.S. She must physically be in the U.S. to file it, and you have to be in Italy, be approved, then as the next answerer said, you have to marry within three months of your arrival. Hope this helps. It's a long process that I'm currently going through myself.\n\n\n\nIf you want to stay together during the process, I would recommend marrying in Italy, and staying there during the application process, if that's financially doable for you. That's what I'm doing now, I'm a tourist here in Argentina for about a year and a half now because of this process... the marriage was in March, and the visa process has been since then, but the embassy has been nice about it, the main delays have been lack of information and problems gathering all the necessary papers. Be sure to ask at the embassy as soon as you're married whether you need a Hague apostille (seal from the international court) on your marriage certificate so the U.S. recognizes it. I hope this helps you to prevent the same delays I've had

Apply for a K-1 visa (Fiance(e)).  Check out the website for information that you will need.  Once approved, she will be allowed to come to the US to get married.  Once married you then apply for a permanent visa (green card).  Check out the website and be prepared to spend some money.

Marriage for the purpose of gaining permanent residence is a fraud by US laws. If you have great amounts of money, $15 million will get you into this country on investor visa anyway.

You are in luck, I just got mine.\n\nIt only requires one grandparent born in Ireland, but you need proof. You need their birth certificate from Ireland, marriage certificate, death certificate if deceased or an official ID if alive. Then you will need your mother's birth certificate, marriage certificate, and death certificate if deceased or an official ID if alive. You will also have to prove your residence.\n\nIf there are any discrepancies on any of the papers, and this is common, you must document it in a written statement. Example: my grandma had a different year of birth between the birth and death certificate because the death information was provided by grandpa who got it wrong.\n\nGo to the web site of the Irish Embassy in Washington DC for further details and contact me if you need any more info or a contact in Ireland to get your grandmother's Irish birth certificate.\n\nEmbassy of Ireland, Wash.

YES\n\nAge and Citizenship requirements - US Constitution, Article II, Section 1\n\nNo person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident within the United States.

That depends on a number of things. Most importantly what your current nationality is.\nIf you are a European Passport holder it will be easier for you.\n\nThe following site is packed with free information, but they do encourage you to buy their guide.\nhttp://www.movetoireland.com/\n\nOther Sources\n\nOasis (Online Access to Services, Information and Support)\nhttp://www.oasis.gov.ie/moving_country/moving_to_ireland/\nhttp://www.oasis.gov.ie/\n\nGovernment of Ireland Website.\nhttp://www.gov.ie/

it's gonna be tough for you.  right now, the government is now proposing that, for children born in Ireland of foreign parents, citizenship at birth will only be granted if one of the parents has been legally resident in Ireland for at least three of the four years before the birth.\n\nit's not a question of you can or cannot.  if you really want to, sure you can but don't be so sure of you and your baby's citizenship.  it's harder than you thought.

I know here (Ireland) if his name is on the birth cert you need his signature to get a passport.  Not sure about anywhere else.

This depends on the country moving to and maybe even the country moving from.  I would think most countries have a Family Visa option that is dependant upon the "main" visa.  I would check out the webite for the county's immigration department and also google family immigration plus whichever country.  Try calling and asking that immigration department on the phone.  \n\nGood luck and Congratulations on the marriage. \n\nmotherinprincess
