Fiance Visa Attorney

How to Qualify For a Fiancé Visa

• The petitioner in the United States must be a U.S. Citizen not a green card holder.  Green card holders are not eligible to file a fiance visa petition.
• You must have met your intended spouse, in person, within the last two years (this requirement is meant to eliminate the practice of mail-order, or Internet-order, brides). You should take a picture of the two of you together and keep copies of any plane tickets used for visits between the two of you. This requirement may be waived based on extreme hardship. This generally means that the United States citizen has the type of medical problems which will not allow him to visit you in your home country. This generally does not mean that it would be a financial hardship for your United States citizen to visit you. It also may be waived based upon cultural customs.
• You must both be legally permitted to get married.
• Your U.S. citizen fiancé must be able to support you financially according to the guidelines set down by the U.S. government
• The foreign fiance must not be ineligible to come to the United States based on prior criminal, immigration violations or other matters.
• Both the U.S. Citizen and the fiance must not be married to someone else. (If you have been married before, you need to make sure that the marriage was annulled or legally terminated (divorce, death, etc.)  You cannot file your case while you are waiting for your divorce to become final.

If your fiancé is not a U.S. citizen but is only a lawful permanent resident he or she should consult with us to see if he qualifies to become a U.S. citizen. (To learn more, see: 10 Reasons To Become a Naturalized United States Citizen.) When he becomes a U.S. citizen, then he should be able to file a K-1 fiancé visa petition for you.  Currently the overall wait time for fiance visas is about 9 to 10 months.

The overall denial rate (for all fiance visas filed in the United States by all individuals filing fiance visa cases) in the beginning of 2019 is 50%.  The denial rate was less than 10% a couple of years ago.  In contrast almost 100% of our fiance visa cases have been approved.

Effects on Children During the Fiancée/Fiancé Visa Process

The unmarried children, under the age of 21, whether or not they are the biological children of the United States citizen, may be eligible to accompany you into the United States and apply for their own green cards.

If you are in the fiancé visa process, your case will be terminated should you marry your US citizen fiancé before you enter the United States. In this case you would have to do a marriage visa (I-130 case).

What is the Current Approval Rate for Fiance Visa Cases overall and what is your approval rate?

In 2018 and 2019 the overall approval rate hovered between 50 and 60 percent.  These numbers were for all of the fiance visa cases which were filed in the United States during that period.  Many of these cases were filed by individuals or individuals with the help of paralegals, immigration consultants and notarios.

Our approval rate for 2018 and 2019 is close to 100%.  As they say in the world of finance, this is not a guarantee of future results and it is not a guarantee that we can obtain a fiance visa for you.  However, given the current immigration climate, we have obtained very good results for our clients.

If You Work With Our Office How Will We Help You?

• We will do an in depth interview with you to make sure that the fiancé visa process is the best overall choice for you.  For example, based on different factors it may make more sense to marry your fiance, in his or her home country, and then apply for his or her green card abroad.
• You will complete a short questionnaire and forward it to our office.
• If it looks like we can help you we will send you a more in-depth questionnaire to complete.
• We will prepare all of your USCIS forms for you.  You will simply review and sign the documents.
• You will forward the signed documents to our office.  We will also have you send in the USCIS required evidence to our office.
• We will make sure your packet with supporting evidence is completely ready.  We will then file your documents with USCIS.
• We will notify you of your case number so you can track the progress of your case online.
• We will monitor your case with USCIS to make sure that your application is processed in a timely manner
• Once the application is approved in the United States we will continue working with you to make sure the process goes smoothly and that your fiancé brings the correct forms to her visa interview with the U.S. Consulate.
• We will help your fiancé prepare for her interview at the U.S. Consulate.
• We will answer any questions you have and give you all the support you need for your fiancé to come to the U.S. once the K-1 is granted.
• Unlike many other offices, you will always be dealing with a fiance visa attorney, not a secretary or paralegal in your case.  We will know you and your case very well.

Fiance Visas Are Harder to Get than You Realize

Falling in love is the easy part.

Trying to convince the immigration authorities that you and your fiancé deserve to live together in the United States can be a frustrating process.

There are many bureaucratic hoops and hurdles to jump through.

• Countless forms to fill out.
• An immense amount of paperwork to read and complete.
• A dizzying stack of backup documentation to prepare.

One mistake, and your petition can be endlessly delayed or even denied.

That’s why it makes sense to partner with us.

We help clients navigate the often intimidating and complex maze of bureaucracy to help you check off this important box and get on with your life.

U.S. Citizenship doesn’t come along with a U.S. spouse.

You’d think that as an exemplary U.S. citizen you have every right to decide whom you should marry. Then you’d expect that the U.S. government will honor your decision on whom to marry. The reality is often different.

Our immigration law is a confusing maze of paperwork, more paperwork and MORE paperwork!

Thousands of K-1 fiancé visa applications get rejected every year due to simple mistakes or omissions, or for other trivial reasons. You don’t want that to happen to you!

The U.S. Immigration Law is a specialized area, and it’s confusing, especially if you have no real hands-on experience – as we do.

Let Us Be Your Partner through this Complex Process – We’ll Help You Get Fiancé Visa Quickly

We deal with individual cases only. We are not in the business of churning out a high-volume business. We understand that even though the process may be similar, every case is different, and it needs to be approached with diligence and meticulous care.

Full Service with Affordable Legal Fees.

If you have a straight-forward case with no issues we can charge you this low flat rate. We do all the work for you, so you don’t have to worry about making a mistake, which will delay your case. We offer a low flat fee with a low monthly payment plan for clients who don’t have the upfront cash.

Basically, you have three options if you want to qualify for a U.S. fiancé visa:

Option #1: You can pick up the forms from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and try to tackle the mountain of confusing paperwork yourself. If you’re taking this route, good luck!

Option #2: If you’re a book mole, read all the best textbooks on the subject (may take months to go through the best ones), and leap into the application process with the faith that everything will be all right. The only problem here is that textbooks provide generic advice that can be outdated simply because the immigration laws change as often as the wind blows.

Option #3: Let our fiance visa attorney walk you through the maze of U.S. immigration law and tell you, in plain English, what’s relevant and important in your case. Most importantly, we’ll help you identify any potential issues and weaknesses in your case and figure out how together we can overcome them.

What our Clients are saying:

“We first used Lawrence Gruner and Jason Marachi for my then fiance’s K1 visa. They were always readily available to answer any questions and were very knowledgeable about the current immigration laws and processes. We really loved both Lawrence and Jason because they stayed on top and followed our case as it went through USCIS. They gave personal attention to our case, which definitely put us at ease, especially since we are not locals of Sacramento. They always had great communication, whether it be by phone or email. We thought they did such an outstanding job with the K1 Visa that we returned back to them when we applied for an Adjustment of Status (Green Card) for my now husband. In the future, we will definitely give our business back to Lawrence and Jason. They are among the elite in their field.” S. Lazaro, California

Mr Gruner and his associates are true life savers! They are knowledgable, reliable, friendly and thorough. Any question, comment or concern will recieve a timely response. With the hustle and bustle of daily life, there wasn’t any time for me to attempt to complete any immigration application forms for my then fiance, who is from the Dominican Republic and #TEAMGRUNER saved the day! Their prompt service and continuous availabilty made my husband’s approval process a breeze, only 5 months. Because of their quick pace and dedication, my husband and I were alloted the duration to focus on bigger and better adventures aka OUR WEDDING DAY.

Update: Due to my happy ending, I referred a friend and their approval notice was processed and mailed after a short 3 month timeframe!#TEAMGRUNER IS THE BEST IN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY—-O. Guzman, Oakland, CA
