What is the K-1 Fiancé Visa?

The K-1 Fiancé Visa allows the foreign-citizen fiancé(e) of a U.S. citizen to travel to the United States for the purpose of marriage. After entering the U.S., you will have 90 days to get married, after which your fiancé(e) can apply for permanent residence (a green card) based on your marriage. This visa serves as the beginning of your journey together in the United States and opens the path to permanent residency for your loved one.
