Legal Question in Immigration Law in New Hampshire

fiance visa question

I'm a US citizen and wish to bring my fiance to the US so we can be married. My fiance is a filipina who has been living in canada on a work visa for 2+ years now and has recently(sept 2002) applied for her canadian immigrant card. Can you advise me as to what we should do in this case?? Should we wait for her to get her canadian immigrant before applying for the K1 visa. I dont mind retaining your services in the future but i'm not sure what direction to go in right now, please advise????

Re: fiance visa question

It may be easier for your fiance to enter the U.S. in visitor visa status and then getting married two months after her entry in the U.S. This way you will be able to petition for her and she can file for adjustment of status, employment authorization application, etc. and she will not have to leave the U.S. Alternatively, you can wait for her to obtain landed immigrant status in Canada--she will not need a visitor visa to enter the U.S. in this scenario.

Please call our law firm at 212-268-3580 to discuss in detail in-person or by phone. Our consultation fee will be $100 at the time of the meeting, but this amount will be deducted from our legal fee when we represent you for this immigration matter in the future.
