Have a Filipina Fiance or Philippines Wife? You Need a K1 Visa or K3 Visa

It is no wonder that many Americans fall for Filipinas. They are not only beautiful, but smart, kind and loving, too. When an American and his Filipina fianceediscuss marriage, it is natural for them to wonder whether it would be easier to get married in the Philippines or in the United States. If they decide to marry in the U.S., then they would need a fiance or K1 visa before the fiancee can come to the U.S. But if they marry in the Philippines, then the visa that they need to apply for is the Philippines marriage visa.

Both fiance and marriage visa will need many documents to be submitted to the United States Citizenship Immigration Services (USCIS). Approval for fiancee visa can take from 4 to 6 months, while a Philippines marriage visa will take longer. Both visas will need proof that the relationship is genuine and that the foreign national fiancee/spouse broke no immigration laws. After the petition has been approved by the USCIS, it will be forwarded to the American Embassy in the country where the fiancee/spouse is residing. A medical examination and a visa interview will then be scheduled for her.


On a K1 or fiancee visa, your spouse will need to file for adjustment of status after your marriage. She cannot travel or work unless she files for travel or work permit. The same is true of a spouse who entered the United States on a Philippines marriage visa or the K3 visa. But the time allowance for them to file for a green card is two years.
