Can I Bring My Fiancé To The United States?
If you are engaged to someone who is not a U.S. citizen and you plan to begin your life together in the United States, a fiancé(e) visa may provide a path for your partner to come to the country legally. If you are already married, your spouse may be able to pursue lawful status through the family-based immigration process, depending on your circumstances and eligibility.
Although these immigration options can be life-changing for couples and families, the process often involves detailed forms, supporting documentation, government review, and strict procedural requirements. Delays, requests for additional evidence, and other complications can arise if the case is not prepared carefully.

What Can an Immigration Lawyer Help Us With?
Although it is possible to apply for a K-1 fiancé(e) visa without an attorney, the process can be detailed, time-consuming, and stressful.

Even small mistakes or missing information can lead to delays, requests for additional evidence, or other complications.
Dina Sokhn helps clients in California prepare fiancé(e) visa petitions with care and attention to detail. She can guide you through the requirements, help you gather the necessary documents, and work to present your case clearly and accurately.

What Happens During the Fiancé Visa Application Process?
The fiancé(e) visa process involves several important steps and careful preparation at each stage. In general, the process begins with filing the required petition and supporting documents with USCIS. After approval, the case is typically transferred for consular processing, where the foreign fiancé(e) may need to complete additional forms, attend an interview, and satisfy other requirements such as a medical examination.
The U.S. citizen petitioner must also be prepared to show that the financial sponsorship requirements are met. These obligations can carry serious legal and financial consequences, so it is important to understand them fully before moving forward. Once the fiancé(e) enters the United States on a K-1 visa, the marriage generally must take place within 90 days.
After the marriage, the next step is usually applying for adjustment of status so the foreign spouse can seek lawful permanent residence. Because this process involves multiple government agencies, strict deadlines, and detailed documentation, careful planning is important from the beginning.
Dina Sokhn of Sokhn Law Offices helps clients in California navigate fiancé(e) visa and marriage-based immigration matters with clear, personal guidance. She can assist with preparing the petition, explaining financial sponsorship obligations, helping clients understand consular processing, and guiding them through the next steps after marriage, including the path toward a green card.
