Can I bring my fiance to the US to marry him? 11 Answers as of November 07, 2011

You can apply for fiance visa. Visit site uscis.gov whereby you may file the applications and supporting documents. However, if your fiance has issues with the law or would be considered to have violated immigration laws in the past then you will need an attorney.

You can bring him to the U.S. on a fiance visa if you have met face-to-face before. If not, you will have to provide a compelling reason why you cannot travel to meet him or why he cannot travel here to meet you.

If you are a US citizen, you can file an I-129F petition to start the fianc process. If it is approved, your fiance can then apply for the K1 visa at the US Consul closest to his residence.

You can request a fianc visa for the purpose of coming to the U.S. to get married. It does not give permanent status in the U.S. unless a subsequent application is made for lawful permanent residence, which will then be lost if your spouse resides outside the U.S. for 1 year or more without obtaining advanced permission to do so. However, the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service recognizes foreign marriages for the purpose of obtaining an immigration benefit when you chose to relocate to the U.S. in the future.

Yes you can. But if he moves back to Dubai, he can lose his residency.

Yes, you may file a fiancé petition with USCIS provided you and your fiancé have met in person within the last 2 years and are free to marry. After the petition is approved, your fiancé may apply for a K-1 visa at the US Embassy in Dubai provided if he is a legal resident of that consular jurisdiction and may thereafter file an application for a green card with the USCIS in the U.S. after he arrives and you are married. The process is somewhat complicated and I suggest that you seek the assistance of an experienced immigration attorney.

If you do not plan to petition him for green card, there is no point to file fiance visa. Just apply for B-2 visa if he can convince the US consulate that his visit is short and he does not intend to live here permanently. He can come here to marry you. If you plan to live in the US with him, then you can file fiance visa. He can come to the US on fiance visa to marry you.

You can. but then you have to marry him within 90 days.

Assuming you are both free to marry (not currently married), you meet a minimum income requirement and you have met in person within the past two (2) years you and your fianc should be eligible for a visa. That said, I do not know your circumstances so this answer is a broad generalization and is subject to change.

You can seek a fiancee visa for your husband to enter the United States. You will be required to show a genuine relationship and intent to marry within 90 days of his entry. However, if you are looking to obtain immigration benefits for him, this may not be the best alternative as he will likely have to remain in the U.S. until his adjustment of status is approved or at least until his travel document is approved. Even after he is granted lawful permanent residence, he will have to have an intent to remain a resident. Any absence of more than six months can result in a loss of his resident status. You should consult with an immigration attorney before taking any steps to discuss what would be the best option for you and your fiancee.
