Whether you are just beginning the application or have questions about your eligibility, the firm provides personalized legal guidance throughout every step of the process.
What Is a K-1 Fiancé(e) Visa?
A K-1 visa allows the foreign fiancé(e) of a United States citizen to travel to the United States for the purpose of marriage. After the K-1 visa is approved and the foreign fiancé(e) enters the country, the couple must marry within 90 days. After the marriage takes place, the foreign spouse may apply for Adjustment of Status to become a lawful permanent resident. Eligible children of the fiancé(e) may also qualify for K-2 visas.

Bountiful Law assists clients with every stage of the fiancé(e) visa process, including:

Every application is carefully prepared to help reduce delays and avoid common filing mistakes.
Preparing a Strong Petition
The success of a K-1 visa application depends on demonstrating that the relationship meets the legal requirements established under U.S. immigration law. Applicants must generally show that they are legally free to marry, intend to marry within 90 days of the foreign fiancé(e)’s arrival, and have met in person within the required time period unless a legal exception applies.
Bountiful Law works closely with couples to organize supporting documentation, prepare complete applications, and ensure the petition accurately reflects their relationship.
Guidance Beyond the Visa Approval
Receiving a K-1 visa is only one step in the immigration process. After arriving in the United States and marrying within the required 90-day period, the foreign spouse must apply for Adjustment of Status to obtain lawful permanent resident status. Proper planning during the K-1 process helps create a smoother transition to the next stage of the immigration journey.
Bountiful Law continues to assist clients after marriage, helping them prepare green card applications and address any additional immigration matters that arise.
