Spousal Visas vs Marriage Visas

K-1

Purpose: The K-1 visa allows a U.S. citizen to bring their foreign fiancé(e) to the United States for the purpose of getting married.
Eligibility: The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen, and both parties must be legally eligible to marry. They must have met in person within the past two years.
Process: The U.S. citizen petitioner files Form I-129F, Petition for Alien Fiancé(e), with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Once approved, the foreign fiancé(e) applies for the K-1 visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate in their home country.
Requirements: The couple must intend to marry within 90 days of the foreign fiancé(e)’s entry into the United States. After marriage, the foreign spouse can apply for adjustment of status to become a lawful permanent resident (green card holder).
Our K-1 Fiance Visa Lawyer will go through all of this during your consultation.

CR-1

Purpose: The CR-1 visa, also known as the Conditional Resident Spouse Visa, allows a U.S. citizen to bring their foreign spouse to the United States as a lawful permanent resident.
Eligibility: The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen, and the couple must be legally married.
Process: The U.S. citizen petitioner files Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, with USCIS. Once approved, the foreign spouse applies for the CR-1 visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate in their home country.
Requirements: The couple must have a bona fide marital relationship and intend to live together in the United States permanently. The foreign spouse receives a conditional green card upon entry into the United States, which is valid for two years. Within the 90-day period before the green card expires, the couple must file a joint petition to remove the conditions on residency (Form I-751).

IR-1

Purpose: The IR-1 visa, also known as the Immediate Relative Spouse Visa, is similar to the CR-1 visa but is issued to spouses of U.S. citizens who have been married for more than two years.
Eligibility: The petitioner must be a U.S. citizen, and the couple must be legally married for more than two years.
Process: The U.S. citizen petitioner files Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, with USCIS. Once approved, the foreign spouse applies for the IR-1 visa at a U.S. embassy or consulate in their home country.
Requirements: The requirements for the IR-1 visa are similar to those for the CR-1 visa, except that the couple must have been married for more than two years at the time of filing the petition.
The difference between all the visas will be explained by our K-1 Fiance Visa Lawyer during your consultation.
