Hello VJ

HELLO VJ,

I just want to ask a question?

My friend she entered in the USA

as a K1 or fiance visa

and her fiance past away, and

she found another man who is

welling to marry her.

My question is... Is she gonna go home

and process the visa again or

just stay in the USA?

to think K1 visa is only allowed to stay for 90 days

if you will not marry your man.

Any advice and concern please!!!!!

Thanks

The K1 only is good if you marry the person who petitioned for you in the first place; you can't marry someone else. She'll need to go home and restart the process.

First prayers for your friend with the passing of her fiance.

She must not overstay her K-1 (90 day limit) otherwise she risks future denials and problems. She needs to return home within the time limit. The K-1 is NOT transferable regardless of the circumstances.

Even if she did get married to another man, she would never be able to adjust her status. Best for her not to over stay and risk a 3-10 bar.

Well, thats amazing. The K-1 Visa is good for 90 days. Now he past away, but yet she finds another. That did'nt take long.

She will have to return since that Visa is Void. Did she get married? This is why USCIS puts the honest people on waiting lists.

She has been suffering from grief and then has met another. Sometimes grieving people bond. I wouldn't wish this on anyone, but if in this darkness she found some good then I hope for the best for them. God Bless

Quite frankly, this is quite odd ... The girl is dealt this tragic loss of her significant other, and in time of mourning, she all of a sudden finds a 'new' fiance, and ready to jump into a new relationship. Call me crazy, but, there's no way USCIS would should allow her to remain here.. She needs to go back and re-start the process and validate the new relationship is legitimate w/ proper documentation,etc..

Unfortunate, I'm sorry for her loss.

However, this is immigration with pretty understandable rules. To eliminate visa fraud(amongst other factors), a foreign fiance(e) can't just adjust status based on any marriage. It has to be to the original petitioner. The AOS will be denied. Had they gotten married it would be a different thing although I couldn't see the point of staying in the US after been here less than 90 days, not married and found another man. What's the timeline for this? I've been here for way longer and still would want to hit-the-road-jack if that happened to me. I'm sorry, it's not being judgmental towards your friend. It's a point of view seen with USCIS goggles on.

Thank you. I understand completely and will advise my friend. I'm from the U.S., and don't know the immagration laws well.

No it's friend that her cousin she introduce them, and she don't know what to do so she ask.

[chane 0]

Thanks...

She didn't marry that guy yet she was just asking me a questions what if... what if.

I don't have any idea about this situation. It was her cousin who tried to introduce them.

[C-ma'am 684]

You have the answer for her already.

She cannot marry the new guy. She needs to go back home. If she does marry the new guy (regardless of how they met) she is breaking the law and therefore, could (and very likely) will be subject to deportation with a wonderful 3 or 10 year ban.

[Grant PDX 183]

I have a question that maybe the other more senior members would know the answer. Can she get married, then go back home and do a CR-1? Just a thought... She'd stil have to go home, but the relationship would be more concrete.

I don't want to invite judgement of whether it's "OK" with her prior fiance and that relationship recently over, just wondering about the legality of the situation.
