I need your advise - my partner (who is a very handsome cuban guy from FL ) and I have been in an on-again, off-again kind of relationship since 2006, and this new year, we've decided that we'd like to tie the knot.
The issue is I'm coming from a (developed) middle eastern country where being gay is a crime (and punishable by death - yeah it sucks i know). He's coming to visit me this May (for that 2 month rule) and we'd start from there.
2 things that bother me:
- Can we apply for a K-1 visa for a same sex marriage bearing in mind that being gay is a crime in the country I'm applying from?
- We've known each other for more than 10 years but we didn't bother saving transcripts of texts, photos etc (we're not a selfie kind of guys, and chat histories get lost when you change your phone). Its just that we didn't know we would need it in the future. How do we go about this?
