First, if you do what dulcern4u suggests and try to get him into the country with a tourist visa, after you're married in Egypt, you are asking for big, big, big trouble.\n\nThis is the proper way.\n\nYou get married in Egypt.  You return to the USA alone.  You submit a visa sponsorship application to CIS for your husband.\n\nThe visa application will be processed in the United States.  It will then be forwarded to the embassy in Egypt.  They will send your husband a package of instructions.  Once he has completed everything (police clearance, physical examination, photos, finger prints, etc...) and submitted it to the embassy they will process the application and notify him to make an appointment for an interview.\n\nHe will be interviewed by an American Consular Officer.\n\nAssuming everything is okay he'll be issued a visa and allowed to travel to the USA.  It should take about 6 months.\n\nYou've going to need money for fees.  You are also going to need to prove adequate income (150% of the poverty level for your family size ... about $18,000 a year for a family of 2) to sponsor him and execute an affidavit of support.  \n\nYou keep asking this same question over and over.  The answer isn't going to change.\n\nGood luck.

Ok I can will tell you the steps and give you some web addresses, I have already done this, I am USA citizen and I married someone in a part of Africa.  First you need to file the form I-130 and send this in, this is the paper that will get your wife her visa, but right now it can take up to 1.5 year for this process, but after you file this form you will get a receipt in the mail showing they received it and it is being looked too (you will get the receipt in no more than 30 days, I got mine in 2 weeks.  After you get this receipt you need to file the I-129F form, this form will get your wife the K-3 visa, which means she can come here to be with you while the process of her normal visa is being done.  Always remember, your wife can come here on the K-3 visa cause she is considered your immediate family and they put this first when doing the visas.  The first form costs 190$ to file, and the second one is 170$.  After you do this second form you dont have to do anything else unless the immigration contacts you and needs more information, like information about your financial status, how you will support her while she is here, and you might have to have a meeting with someone from immigration.  After they receive the I-129F form at the immigration office they will contact the embassy in her country and the embassy will contact her to prepare for her meeting with the ambassador and so forth.  I hope this helps and gives you a good idea.  Below is some webs that are very important, and the first one is where you should download and print out the forms i told you about.

A K1 Fiancee Visa. I applied for one in November 2003 and obtained one in October 2004. A lawyer doesn't mean that the paperwork will be any quicker, but it will help you get all the paperwork the immigration people need, and they need a lot.\n\nI would suggest a free forum www.visajourney.com\n\nGood luck. It's worth it in the end...

You should definetly marry him in the US.\n\nIf he is in the US legally you can file for a change of status while he is here (if you get married before his status expires).\nIf you need more time you can both go to Mexico and request from the embassy a K-1 fiancee visa, this allows him to come in the US. You must get married withing 90 days of his arrival in the US on a K-1 visa.\n\nIf you go and get married in Mexico, he needs to file for a perment residency at the local consulate which will take 6-15 months to process, during this time he can not come to the US.

Well there are two sections of the US Embassy in Accra. The visa section is in Osu.  Between 6th and 10th lanes, it's just about behind Frankies, ask anyone and they'll direct you.  The embassy building is located on the La road from Danquah circle, it's very big and you can't miss it.  \n\nOk, so you need an email address too.   One of them is  Accrafpm@state.gov, they announce this for visa fraud alerts, but they can surely be reached this way for other queries as well.

Contact the local US Consulate.  They will have information for the proper forms to complete for a visa to the USA.  It should be listed in the phone books in your country.

i don't know the procedure or have the perfect answer for you. but maybe to help you i would recommend to contact the IMC (international medical center) between heliopolis and 10th ramadan on cairo-ismailia road. its a co-working project between egypt and usa and they are american nurses to train local ones as well. maybe they have an exchange programm with usa? i don't know about it, but i would consider it worth a phone call or a visit. if you start there, maybe you get a sponsorship in your further education that way.

Here's a serious answer for you.....\n\nThis is the proper way.\n\nYou get married in Ghana. You return to the USA alone. You submit a visa sponsorship application to CIS for your husband.\n\nThe visa application will be processed in the United States. It will then be forwarded to the embassy in Ghana. They will send your husband a package of instructions. Once he has completed everything (police clearance, physical examination, photos, finger prints, etc...) and submitted it to the embassy they will process the application and notify him to make an appointment for an interview at the embassy with an American Consular Officer.\n\nHe will be interviewed by an American Consular Officer.\n\nAssuming everything is okay he'll be issued a visa and allowed to travel to the USA. \n\nIt should take about 6 months from start to finish.\n\nYou've going to need money for fees. \n\nYou are also going to need to prove adequate income (150% of the poverty level for your family size ... about $18,000 a year for a family of 2) to sponsor him and execute an affidavit of support.

You have to meet her first in person and document it within 2 years of marrying, that is for a K1 visa, fiance visa. Then you both apply for her to come here under the K1 visa. You pay a fee here and she then will be called to the US Embassy in her country to be interviewed. Here, they will check you out before you are approved and you have to show you can support her and care for her when she arrives. Once here you have 90 days to marry her, or send her back at your expense. The majority come here from the Philippines, Russia, China,Thailand, South America. There are no more true mail order brides, as all are investigated and much paperwork and you must meet in person prior to applying for her.

You need to file a fiancee visa petition. Following that (assuming it is approved), the petition is sent to the National Visa Center for processing. At that time, they will ask for an affidavit of support (I-864) and you will need to complete the visa processing forms. Once they are done with it, they will send the petition to the U.S. Embassy Consular Section in Lagos at which time your fiancee will be called for an interview (and its a good idea for you to be there as well). At the interview, he/you will need to prove the bona fides of your relationship and intent to marry. Assuming he gets approved, he can then enter the U.S. and you must get married within 90 days and then apply for his adjustment of status (green card).

Tourist visas are extremely difficult for Moroccans to get, and it will be even more difficult if he is your fiance since that will show a reason why he may want to stay in the United States permanently. To get a tourist visa, he would apply at the Consulate in Casablanca. He would need a secure job, a sizable bank account, should own land or have other ties that demonstrate he is likely to return home.\n\nAs others have mentioned, you can apply for a K-1 Fiance Visa. However, the requirement is that you and he have met two years or less IN PERSON prior to applying for the visa. Once he arrives on the visa, you must marry within 90 days. The K1 process usually takes a minimum of five months. Another requirement will be providing proof that you make 125% or above of the poverty level, and if you don't, you will need a co-sponsor. Once you marry, you will be signing a document saying you are willing to financially provide for him (the period of time varies but is normally 10+ years). Even if you divorce, he can sue you for this maintenance. The whole process involves a lot of paperwork and a fair amount of money. He won't be able to work until he gets a work document, and that can take 90 days or more after you marry and file.\n\nIt is becoming more difficult to get a marriage and fiance visas coming out of Morocco due to the high rate of fraud (men marrying for green cards). Make sure you build a substantial case - pictures together, phone logs, email/chat logs, etc.

The I-129F needs to be filed for the fiancee visa. Following that, the petition is sent to the National Visa Center for processing. At that time, they will ask for an affidavit of support (I-864) and you will need to complete the visa processing forms. Once they are done with it, they will send the petition to the U.S. Embassy Consular Section in London at which time your fiancee will be called for an interview (and its a good idea for you to be there as well). At the interview, he/you will need to prove the bona fides of your relationship and intent to marry. Assuming he gets approved, he can then enter the U.S. and you must get married within 90 days and then apply for his adjustment of status (green card).\n\nNo quick way of doing this unfortunately.\n\nGood luck!

File I129f.  This is the fiance visa.  It will take about 6 months for the process to complete and she can get her visa.  Once she is in the US you have 90 days to get married.  Once you get married you need to file I485 which is adjustment of status or a green card.  I765 is a work permit and I131 which allows her to leave the country while you wait for the green card.  Good luck. \nGo to www.uscis.gov and you can download the form.  Don't hire an attorney, they just charge you for stuff you can do on your own.

Before you marry while your still in the USA you need to File \na K-1 Fiance Visa. They will approve it or deny it. Once it is approved he can get his passport to come to the USA. You have 90 days to marry after his arrival to the USA. His Visa will be conditional and if he does not marry within the 90 days he will have overstayed his visa and a letter of deportation will be issued. Its actually not a hard process, it can be costly and can take some time to finish. Once you both are married in the USA you will need to file a 245-I application which consists of a (I-130 showing he is married to a US citizen and a 485-I is an adjustment of status) After filing this they will do a name check and then approve his greencard for 3 years. After 3 years he would then be able to file for citizenship as long as he meets the requirements.

First of all he is going to have a hard time mainly because he is of a Muslim background. They will give him the run around unless he has a good reason for coming to America. You can look at the website as much as you want. They will not tell you the whole process that they will try to put him through. I have been working in Germany at the airport and had to deal with people who wanted to come to America for 5 years and I also know what they do at the American Embassy. You need to get someone who will sponsor him or that are willing to watch over him and have a place that he will stay. May I add; You and that person will under surveillance for a long time. They will also probably make a background check on you. Hope I was able to help you.

I have already done this and maybe i can help you.  I am USA citizen and i brought my husband here.  First you need to file the I-130 forms, then you will wait no longer than 30 days and you will receive a receipt in the mail showing that immigration received this form and the pprs are in progress now, (I received my receipt in only 2 weeks!!!!).  Second you need to file the I-129F form, which is the petition for alien fiance(e) form.  This will make her elgible for a K-3 visa, which will allow her to come here to marry you and she can wait here until her regular visa becomes available.  You will just have to show proof that you all will marry.  I hope this helps, and below i will give you web addresses that will be very helpful to you during this process.  Good luck.

Search for the site of the Embassy of Egypt in US and know the requirements thereat.  Egypt has its own travel requirements for an American citizen.
