Fiancé(e) & Fiancé(e)'s Children Visa
A United States citizen who wishes to bring his/her foreign national fiancé(e) into the United States to marry may petition for a fiancé(e) visa. Children of the fiancé(e) may also qualify for a visa.
There are a few requirements that need to be met in order to petition for a fiancé(e) visa:
- The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen
- The marriage should happen within ninety days of fiancé(e) entering the U.S.
- Any previous marriages that the petitioner of the fiancé(e) may have had in the past must have been legally terminated by divorce, death or annulment
- The petitioner and fiancé(e) must have met each other, in person, at least once within two years of filing the petition (there are exceptions to this rule that require a waiver)
At Cohen & Forman, we can help you file a petition for your fiancé(e) to come into the United States. We can also help to bring his/her children to accompany their stay in the United States, and to apply for work authorization immediately after your fiancé(e) is admitted into the United States. A wedding is one of the most special occasions in someone’s life, and Cohen & Forman can take care of the paperwork for you so you can enjoy this occasion with your loved ones.
