I do not live in the USA, but I am a USA citizen by birth. I submitted a K1 visa request.during a recent visit to the USA. Khin is A citizen of Myanmar. We want to marry in the USA with her sister present. We will not be converting her status. We will return to Singapore where we live as foreign workers. I have checked and there is no law that says we have to change her status if she returns to Singapore with me. We will have fulfilled our end of the K1 because we did get married.

In the unlikely event we ever want to live in the USA we will request a K3. I only opted for the K1 because she has not a chance of being approved for a tourist visa (no ties to Singapore). I guess after we are married, her tie to Singapore is me, so she can get a tourist visa at any time. Right?

I received a confirmation stating that my application was received and sent to California from the Texas drop box on Oct 15th. I guess it will sit a while because of the government shutdown.

Until recently I was seeking a K1 for my Burmese fiancé.

2014 01 14 After demonstrating the hate Americans have tward the chidfree, my fiancé has no desire to visit the USA.

Going forward, I will sell off my remaining assets in the USA. I doubt I will ever return. Americans are second only to the French when it comes to rudeness.

I don't think you need to go through the K1 process if you aren't planning to change your status and stay. You can get married in the USA without the K1 visa and go back to Singapore after.

She is a Myanmar citizen living in Singapore. We share a flat in Singapore. She cannot even buy an airline ticket to the USA without a visa. They will not approve her for a tourist visa because she has no ties to Singapore. That is why I applied for a K1. Cool? Edited by Phred

Wish I could immigrate to Canada. The USA is in the last stages of cancer. The country will collapse in the next 10 years.
