Let's Work Hand-in-hand

We went through the process ourselves. We started from scratch not knowing what our options were. At first, we speculated that we could get a K1 visa in a week, maybe 2! Of course, we ended up researching for many months and wondered about hiring a lawyer. We ended up hiring 2 - one each from our homelands - and then promptly proceeded to do all the work ourselves anyway! We heard from a lot of standpoints on what we should do, how to do it, how long it would take and how much it would cost. We bumped into lingo, guides, and instructions we could barely comprehend. What the big picture looks like took us a long time to really grasp.

We've documented these months of research and knowledge acquisition. Compressed information about how to submit a petition for K1 visa can be found in the I-129F Quick Start PDF. Download it to help you streamlining your own K1 Visa process and save you a lot of redundant research (and heart ache).

Beat the Barricades

Conquer the barriers associated with immigration laws, geographic distance, and separation through time in order to live together in the U.S.

The K1 Visa is a two-stage process that starts in the U.S. and ends in the foreign fiance(e)'s country of residence. There are three government agencies you need to interact with.

You have to take actions to demonstrate your relationship, gather records and fill out forms. Its a lot like applying for a driver"s license, but with a lot more paperwork! The forms required are very minimal; however, there is quite a lot of supporting documents that you must provide inorder for things to go smoothly. With all the paperwork lined up, your foreign fiance(e) can finally take the medical exam and pass the visa interview.

Check out the Big Picture and the K1 Visa process for a birdseye view and get the I-129F Quick Start PDF to understand exactly what forms and supporting documents will be needed.

Most of all, stay relaxed and confident. Study the contents in this site to help you travel across the unfamiliar bridge in bringing your fiance(e) to the U.S.
