BoldKhan

Something like this needs to have a lawyer involved.

as the op has no idea about how to proceed, boldkhan's advice is correct and it's not advocating visa fraud.

the op can obtain a visitor's visa, visit, and go back home as boldkhan suggested.

what will sink the op's boat (or anyone else trying it) is using a visitor's visa to get into the country with the intent to immigrate - i.e. marry and try to adjust status.

eta: a visitor's visa from egypt will be very tough to obtain.

Thank you.

Hmm, I think this is a matter of interpretation. I read this guy's post as that he wants to "legally" see his girl in the USA "now". Yes he mentions that he a marriage may happen here or in Egypt, but that is arbituary, if he is upfront about it. People can legally still visit the USA on a B1/B2 visa to somebody who they might (or might not) marry. I know from experience.

Your removeal of my post doesn't make sense, but whatever....do what you must to this more vague.

BoldKhan,

I have requested the mods remove your post as it suggests that the OP commit immigration fraud. Your advise is fine for someone who has not expressed intent to immigrate, however this OP has made clear they would like to come to the US and get married.

Ok. Not my intent. Thank you though.

Hi. You want the best piece of advice?

Tell your girlfriend to be 100% honest with the Consular Officer. Don't mention marriage if you are not at that stage yet.

People come here all the time on B1/B2 visas 1) because they are honest from the start, and 2) they can show that they have a good job and a reason to return.

The Consular Officers meet hundreds if not thousands of liars or people who try to be slick every day. Why be another?

;-)

Hi Egypt.

Don't get discouraged by these naysayers here who have already replied to you.

The best piece of advice anyone can give you here for your situation is to be honest and truthful about your reasons for visiting the moment you apply. Consider applying for a visitors visa and tell the truth "It is the start of a relationship and we just want to visit each other. It could develop into a serious relationship later (or We are very serious) If it does get to the point where we consider marriage, we will consider either a K1 or K3, but right now I just want to see her." If you get denied, what will you have lost? Nothing. But you will not have lied either, which is the worst thing you can do, and the Consular officers see hundreds of liars every day. I don't know why people don't say this.

Here is an example: My brother (U.S. Citizen) met a girl in Thailand. 3 months later he asked her to visit. She applied for the B1/B2 visa AND was able to show that she has a good job in Thailand and that she has a reason to come back. She also told the consular officer, " I met a guy while he visited for 3 months. He asked me to visit him in the U.S. I want to go there for vacation. Yes, we are interested in each other and the relationship could get more serious later. If it does, we will either get married here or there. We aren't there yet."

She got the visitor's visa without any problems, while many others in the room got denied.

The situation is different for everyone, but I think honesty is the best policy.

Good Luck.
