im about to start the process of sponsering my fiance to come and live in australia.we looked into going and living in america but it seems like it will take longer with more hassles.not to mention this is where my heart is and my fiance loves it here too.I was just wondering if anyone has gone through the process of either obtaining a fiance visa for themselves or their partners...if so was it a long difficult drawn out process?or was it alot easier than you anticipated?any tips on making it easier and being with my fiance as fast as possible? thanks so much!!

From Viet Nam to US I guess it the same, here is my experience:
It took me almost two years from the day I file, I am American citizen but that won't do any good, these people take their time they not in a hurry, ready for a long wait and a lot of hassles, I guess you already filed I-129F and I-130 for your wife. If you done this then have every thing personal like pictures, letters, phone bills, air fare tickets, your taxes... ready for the interview. You can find out some info on thier site www.uscis.gov.
E-mail me if you have any more question, I am glad to help you out.

My parents were married this way. But they got married in the US first and then she applied for a "green card" (to stay in the US). It's pretty straight forward if you are already married and the US recognizes that marriage (ie: this is not your second wife - like you were muslim or something). There is a sort of test period that they put you through where you have to stay married for 6 months or something - yeah, I think they'll extend your visa.

Why do not you in basic terms get a fiance visa? this is going to enable her to shuttle to the united kingdom, and function 6 months to get married. once you've married she continues to be contained in the united kingdom and archives for her everlasting/spousal visa.

I've got a friend whose husband is Canadian. They have litterally spent close to $2,850 or more just to get his final paperwork turned it and then they have to pay another huge fee to get that in and then he has to take classes to learn all about our country laws and other stuff. That is expensive I don't blame you for living in Australia.
