To travel to the United States for the purpose of marrying you, your fiance needs the following:

USCIS form I-129F

A passport valid for travel to the United States and with a validity date at least six months beyond the applicant's intended period of stay in the United States.

Birth certificate

Divorce or death certificate of any previous spouse for both the applicant and the petitioner

Police certificate from all places lived since age 16

Medical examination (vaccinations are optional)

Evidence of financial support (Form I-134, Affidavit of Support may be requested.)

Two Nonimmigrant Visa Applications, Form DS-156 (A Form DS-156, prepared in duplicate.)

One Nonimmigrant Fiancé(e) Visa Application, Form DS-156K

Two nonimmigrant visa photos (each two inches 50 X 50 mm square, showing full face, against a light background)

Evidence of a fiancé relationship

The consular officer may ask for additional information according to the circumstances of the case. Documents in foreign languages should be translated.

Take clear, legible photocopies of civil documents, such as birth and marriage certificates, to the interview. Original documents can then be returned to you.

After arriving in the USA and marrying you, you the US citizen must then file:

Form I-130 Petition for an alien relative
Form G325B Biographic information
Form I-485 Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status
Form I-864, Affidavit of Support
Form I-131 Application for Travel Document
Form I-765 Application for Employment Authorization

Last but not least: very large amounts of cash; each application comes with a non-refundable processing fee ranging from US$180 to US$425. Figure US$1000 minimum - more if you get an immigration attorney involved (US$2000 to US$5000).

If you are an American citizen, you can file for a fiance visa; but please make sure that it's you he's in love with, instead of the possiblility of a green card. Here is how to do it:

And by the way, it's a K-1 visa, not a K-3.

It's a K1 visa, there are requirements and having done that procedure i will tell you it can be emotionally trying.

expect issuance of the visa to take at least 6 months, in my case it took about 9 months.

We did not hire an attorney i have heard that makes it easier but not much.

Apply for a fiance visa. It's either a K1 or K3, I can't remember right now.
