Green Card through Fiancé' and Marriage Visa

Every year, thousands of foreign-born people engage or marry U.S. citizens and permanent residents of the same or opposite sex. Still, none of these couples will have precisely the exact Immigration needs. For example, some may have met and married overseas and then moved to the United States. At the same time, some may have met in the United States and wish to marry and stay. Finally, some may have met overseas and want to come to the United States for the wedding. Each of these situations, and others, will require slightly different planning and procedures. However, no matter what your situation is, you have one thing in common with all the other fiances and newlyweds (or even long-time spouses). Before you get the right to come to the United States, whether just to get married or stay permanently, you will have to go through a lengthy process of submitting application forms and paperwork and meeting with government officials to prove your eligibility. At F4 India Law Office, we have expert immigration attorneys to help you get through all the immigration processes quickly and with perfection. Here, you can check your eligibility for a Fiancé and Spouse visa by clicking on the Eligibility check service tool.

Should I Apply For Fiancé Visa Or Get Married First?

What type of visa you should apply for entirely depends upon your situation. Only an experienced attorney will guide you best by analyzing your case type, including many aspects.

Fiancé(e) Visa	Spouse Visa
A U.S. citizen can bring their fiancé (e) to the United States to marry and live here with a fiancé (e) K-1 visa. With the K-1 visa, the foreign fiancé (e) will travel to the U.S. and marry their sponsor within 90-days. Afterward, the foreign citizen has the option of applying for an adjustment of status to become a legal permanent resident (LPR). The advantage of the Fiancé's visa is that the process is fast as compared to the other visas for married individuals. The fiancé (e) visa process takes approx. Six months and becoming a permanent resident after that takes approx. 10 to 11 months.	Spouse visas offer two options–IR-1 or CR-1 and K-3 visas. A Sponsor can bring their spouse to the United States through a Petition for Alien Relative, I-130, or nonimmigrant visa (K-3). A "spouse" is well-defined as the legally married husband or wife of U.S. citizens and LPRs. The validity of the CR-1 spousal visa is six months, which means you have six months to enter the U.S., allowing the holder to come to the U.S. and reside permanently. Please note that no adjustment of status is required with a spouse visa (CR-1). However, the spouse of a green card holder will be on a waitlist until the visa or green card becomes available.

What Happens if The Sponsor Does Not Have Enough Income?

The minimum annual income required to sponsor a spouse for a marriage-based green card is $21,550. The income requirements increase based on family size. A Sponsor can add a joint sponsor if they don't meet the income requirement. Adding a joint sponsor is not just a usual criterion. Many aspects are analyzed first, like previous liabilities, financial eligibility, current legal status, police records, relation to the sponsor, etc. Attorneys at F4 India do such tasks daily. They check the eligibility of a joint sponsor and only after that recommend to add. It is crucial as sometimes, the joint sponsor added on the petition is not eligible. Your immigrant visa petition may go under the administration process, which delays your case, or even you may face denial.

What to do if I-130 Petition for Alien Relative is denied at the Initial Stage by USCIS?

If your petition gets denied, you may have the option of filing a motion to appeal or reconsider. But have you ever thought about why your petition got rejected? F4 India has a record of not having a single denial of the I-130 petition from USCIS. There could be many reasons for the rejection of your I-130, and that's why we advise having an experienced attorney file U.S. complex forms and do the processing on your behalf.

Some of the reasons for the denial are not enough for a negative decision. Thus, USCIS issues a Request for Evidence before denying the petition. Lack of accurate response and no follow-up worsen the case and lead it to rejection, but if you have hired us, you need not worry about anything as this would be the task of our expert Team.

Can I Get Green Card Based on Marriage Visa in the United State or Do I Have to Be Outside?

But the accurate option to go ahead varies from case to case as everyone has different circumstances. So get your case analyzed by an attorney and choose the best option.

How Can a Sponsor Maintain their U.S. Domicile While Staying Outside of the United States?

Suppose you are a U.S. citizen living abroad and married to a foreign citizen, and your spouse wishes to receive a U.S. green card based on your marriage. In that case, you and your spouse should be able to initiate the green card application process from outside of the United States. But in such types of situations where the couple lives abroad, they need proper planning and strategy to apply for a marriage-based visa.

Specific application requirements and procedures may change if both the U.S. citizen petitioner and the foreign-born beneficiary live outside the U.S., and an attorney is the one who can guide you best in this regard.

Our attorneys have worked for different clients worldwide and have dealt with such situations efficiently.

Under What Circumstances the Petition Get Affected By The DHS Final Rule on Public Charge?

Under the new rule of public charge, inadmissibility is determined based on the factors outlined in the statute and deciding on the Applicant's likelihood of becoming a public charge at any time in the future." To prevent this, an applicant does not need to have received public benefits in the past.
