– FIANCÉ(E) VISAS & REMOVAL OF CONDITIONS
ON PERMANENT RESIDENCY –
If you are engaged to be married in the United States and your fiancé(e) is a foreigner located overseas, you may petition for a fiancé(e) visa or K-1 visa, preventing you from having to travel abroad to marry your fiancé(e). In addition to proving intent to marry, there are several requirements for obtaining a fiancé(e) visa, and the visa has a 90-day expiration, with no allowance for extension. Therefore, an expeditious application for adjustment of status is required for your new spouse to obtain a green card.
Removal of Conditions on Permanent Residency:
While obtaining a green card by marriage may allow your spouse to avoid consular processing, the adjustment of status will be for conditional permanent residence, valid only for two years, and requires a petition to be filed to remove the conditions on the lawful permanent resident status. Molavoque Law can ensure the proper paperwork is timely filed and assist you in successfully completing the green card interview.
If you are seeking a fiancé(e) visa for your prospective spouse, and/or need assistance on the application for removal of conditions to establish lawful permanent residency, contact Kristin A. Molavoque, Esquire.
