Short answer: Brining a foreign fiancee to the United States is a long and drawn out process that can take around one year. However you can do the process yourself, without using a lawyer, assuming you are reasonably educated and that your case is fairly routine. Start the process by following the guidelines by the US gov't at the link I've quoted below. Also check out the asawa web site and its forums, while not official or always accurate, it contains several interesting discussion forums about bringing a filipinia spouse to the USA, including talk about visa and cultural matters.

I, as a uk citizen provides you first hand understanding, because of the fact I had a Filipina spouse, and we had 12 years in uk at the same time. My proper suggestion is, no count if it is in any respect conceivable, and that i be attentive to in a important sort of circumstances it is not particularly, as quickly as you have chanced on a intense-high quality woman, stay along with her in the Philippines for i might say a minimum of 9 months to a year, to confirm if issues artwork out ok, earlier you're making intense judgements, and have faith me, you will locate out plenty in that element. i became no longer so fortunate, artwork and a popular holiday saved me in the united kingdom, as quickly as I could have been in Philippines. There are some intense-high quality ladies available, yet there are additionally a important sort of no longer so solid kinds. the huge question is, how do you hit upon a intense-high quality woman?, properly in case you spend some day available, you're very specific to locate a important sort of girls, yet use your individual training to it particularly is fullest benefit, and prefer an lawyer available presently counseled me, she pronounced don't be so trusting of each woman you meet, and that i'm afraid to assert, is my weak spot.

You can go there and apply for her fiancee visa which shouldn't take long!! And once she is here you have to get married within 90 days and do adjustment of status! As for getting married in Philippine that may be better too not sure because every country has their own immigrations laws you need to check their immigrations system before marrying there!!! My sister went to Fiji to get married it took her husband almost 2 yrs before he could come here!!
