Hi, my name's Rochelle a filipina and i reside from huntsville, Alabama a divorce and Im a US citizen. If anyone could help me I'd appreciated it alot. I have a question about my case, I am planning to get my fiancee in Dubai, she's also a Filipina that works w/ great company and has a UAE Resident card. How can I start to file for her? And in my status this is the same Sex case..  Would you pls help me what should I do before getting start my plan? Would it better K1 or Tourist Visa? I known her and we've been together for a while. She also plans what If she'll apply for tourist Visa? Tourist Visa good for 6 months only or that depends what visa will be issued for her, then once her tourist visa is granted I will meet her and let her stay and I will have to marry her within after 90 days or less. Guys any advised? Thank you

If you want her to come here permanently, you need to file for a K1 visa. Using a tourist visa is not an option.

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

If you do this (knowing IN ADVANCE) that you will get married in the US than she can't come on a tourist visa to get married. That would be visa fraud.

 

You can file K-1 while she is still a fiancee or CR-1 if you are already married.

No, that's not a legal path. She will be denied entry at the border if you try to do that.

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.
