Thousand of fiancés or spouses of citizens
remain separated, for not observing the most
basic details when love is in conflict with
immigration law, when applying for residency, or
visa “K”.
In order to even avoid unnecessary delays and
the rejection of your case, seriously consider
the application of my 5 points:
1) The Intention: to enter the country
must be to reunite with your loved one or get
married within 90 days.
2) Good faith: Demonstrate that they have
met in person, the relation that has existed for
the last two years and that they are prepared to
marry.
3) Admissibility: Prove that he or she
will not be public charge to government; that he
or she enjoys good health; that he or she does
not have criminal records and that he or she
reunites all the conditions for admissibility to
the country.
4) Preparation: prepare an album that
contains a compendium that relates the history
of your relationship, from how and where you
met, up to the last events that motivated you to
form a family. Include photos of those memorable
private moments; with friends and relatives, and
place an inscription to each photo to identify
who is who. Enclose copies of emails, letters,
card of invitation to the wedding, the
preliminary list of guests, and everything what
demonstrates that your intentions are
legitimate.
5) Power of discretion: Remember that the
immigration official or agent has the power of
discretion and will consider everything what has
been enclosed very carefully. Inclusively, in
most of the cases, he will require an interview
to confirm your intentions, good faith and
admissibility, before granting the residence or
the “K” visa, before you can celebrate your love
in the USA.
Remember that there is always much more to
analyze before formulating a legal strategy.
