Canadian wedding

[Phil36 0]

If my partner  and  I  get married in  Canada as I'm from  the  UK will  I be able to  enter  the  USA with  her  or  will I  have  to  return  to the  UK  ? Any  info will be  gratefully  received   thanks

You are currently in the US on an F-1?

 

Why Canada? Can just get married here in the US...

You can enter as long as you don't intend to immigrate.

 

Why marriage in Canada?  Why enter the US from there?  What's the problem that you are trying to overcome?

Haven't got  the  visa  it's still in  processand  have  been  for  over  two years now  and  I'm  back  in the  UK  missing  out  on  my 4 yr old son growing  up  and  we  both want  to  get  married  in  Canada  at  the  falls so  was  wondering  if  we  do  get  married  can I  get  in  to  USA or  go  back the uk

We  have  called  to  find  out  what  the  delay is  and  all we  get  is  its still in  processing

You're not likely to be admitted to the US with immigrant intent.  Marriage will not change your visa problem.

 

Could you tell us what happened so we can help?  What process are you in and what are some of the problems that has stretched this out to two years?

Which visa has been in process for 2 years? The F-1? I haven't seen an F-1 that takes so long because it is to study in the US so there is a deadline for that.

If you want to come to the US faster (because you mention a son) maybe apply for K-1 (fiance visa) because it takes 8 months. You will get the visa and get to the US to get married. 

 

But maybe I am missing something. You need to provide more information so that people who know more about this can get you better information.

Where are you in the process? Which forms have you sent exactly?  Is your fiancée an American citizen?

[Phil36 0]

Yes she  is  a American  citizen and  it is  the  k1 visa form and  all I know  is its in  processing  no clue  how  where  it  is  in  the  process 

[Lemonslice 5,323]

Please list all the forms and documents you sent.  Apparently there is something wrong, you might be missing something.

Your plan to cross into the US after marriage in Canada will not work.  Marriage to a USC will not solve the problems that holding up your K-1 petition.  

 

Create a timeline with specific dates if possible on what has been filed and your communications with USCIS.  That's the best way to help you.
