First, you must file the I-129F form, a Petition for the Alien Fiance, to USCIS to prove the authenticity of your relationship. Evidence such as messages, pictures, and proof of visits are required to support your claim, along with proof of US citizenship. After filing the I-129F form, you'll receive a receipt notice from the USCIS, and they may request additional information if needed. Once they approve your form submission, you'll receive an approval notice.
Also known as the K-1 visa application, your sponsored fiance will complete this form and provide several documents, such as their birth certificate, valid passport, police check, and a medical evaluation form received from a State Department-approved physician.
After completing the DS-160 form, your sponsored fiance will attend a visa interview at the nearest U.S. Embassy or consulate in their home country. This interview can be the most nerve-wracking part of the process, but it's essential for getting approval for the K-1 visa. If the officer needs more information, they may request it from your fiance directly. Generally, the decision is made on the same day of the interview or shortly afterward.
Once your sponsored fiance gets approval for the K-1 visa, they can travel to the United States within six months of the initial I-129F form approval. However, you need to get married within 90 days of their arrival. After the wedding, you can apply for a marriage-based green card with sponsorship from the partner who sponsored your K-1 fiance visa.
The K1 visa application is very complex; even the tiniest error can interfere with your chances of getting approval. The best way to prevent complications is by working with an experienced K1 visa lawyer who can use their knowledge to guide you through every requirement and procedure.
The many documents and details you must prepare for the application can be time-consuming and overwhelming. A lawyer can help ensure that all the necessary documents are complete and accurate, which can help expedite the processing time and avoid potential delays or denials.
One of the most nerve-wracking parts of the whole process is, without a doubt, the visa interview with the U.S. embassy. A lawyer can prepare and accompany you to the interview and act as your support and guide throughout the process.
USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence (RFE) if they need additional documentation for your application. A lawyer can assist in responding to RFEs and help ensure you provide all necessary documentation on time.
While hiring a K1 visa lawyer may involve additional expense, it can be a worthwhile investment to help ensure a smooth and successful immigration process.

For all my Latin friends who are going through immigration and legal processes, I recommend this law firm since they are excellent. They defend the Latino community very well. They are very professional and attentive. They respond to you immediately and fight for your case. A thousand thanks to Pamela for being super attentive and Nancy who was exceptional. Also to John Sharby and his colleagues who worked on my wife's case who was ...
David is very professional & friendly. Never had to wait for multiple days before he responded to our calls or replied to my emails with an answer to our questions & concerns. Responding in a timely manner made us feel that our needs were not taken lightly. It truly was a really positive experience.
I am so very thankful that I found Rozas & Rozas Law Firm. They were so professional and nice. I was blown away with how fast they got me in and was able to help me with my situation. Corey was so helpful. He felt more like a friend than an attorney but I am so grateful for them during the WHOLE experience and I most definitely will use them if I ever need that law assistance again! Thank you Rozas & Rozas. :)

From the moment we called, Nancy took the time to explain us everything and what our options were, she was very patient and helpful. Once we decided to hire them, Joseph, David and Rachel were assigne...
Jessica and David were amazing! They made me feel like my issue was important, they took the time to explain things to me and prepare me for any outcome, they were always there every time I called them with any questions, and always looked and acted very professional. I highly recommend them! 😊
Attentive, thorough, passionate about justice for immigrants, honest and fair – these are some of the words to describe Rozas and Associates law firm. My boyfriend was detained at Winn Correctional Center in Louisiana in June 2019. We hired Rozas to represent him because of their reputation amongst the detainees in the Center. Rachel Chappell and the rest of the Rozas team worked tirelessly to assist us – and he won full asy...
