If you are a U.S. citizen and are engaged to be married to someone who resides outside of the U.S., you may apply for a fiancé or fiancée visa. The fiancé(e) visa will allow the fiancé(e) to enter the U.S. for 90 days. During that time, the marriage must occur, and the U.S. citizen spouse must file a petition with USCIS to obtain conditional permanent residency (green card) which will allow the spouse to legally reside in the U.S. on a conditional basis.
What are the Requirements for Fiancé & Fiancée Visas?
Must have met in person within two years of filing the petition
The spouses must have a bona fide intention to marry
Must be able and willing to conclude a valid marriage within 90 days of arrival
