hi. Just to share..My husband who is the USC, is 19 yrs YOUNGER than me..He petitioned for me, and during the interview process, I was already pregnant. So as long as you can prove that you really have a relationship, that should be no problem.

By the way, I really look young, and the IO actually was surprised at my age.

Hi...I have an age difference also...did you have to be at the interview for the visa process to be approved?

You should marry in the U.S. first. You can always have a ceremony in her country later. It is stated on the USICS website that it is better not to marry first in the other country...

Hi folks

I know that this may or may not belong in the K-1 forum, but I just don't know where to begin posting this new development of mine.

I'm in the US and recently engaged to my fiancee from Indonesia. Her family is very insistent that she and I marry in a Siri religious wedding ceremony, with no contract signed. This must be done before she would come to the USA.

I was intent on going through the K-1 visa process. However, I just received an email from the US Embassy in Jakarta with this reply about the Siri wedding and K-1 visa process: "We did not recommend you to have a siri religious ceremony."

Their answer in my opinion was too short and not detailed enough with definite reason to justify their statement. So now I should consider another visa route other than K-1.

Questions:

1) Should just get legally married in Indonesia?

2) If I were to do the Siri wedding with no contract signed, what visa route should I go through?

3) What would be the next best visa route option for me?

I'm feeling so distraught about this because it should be so simple, however, other people are making this so complicated

Thank you in advance for any help.

How will they know that your old address is no longer in effect? Who will tell them?

It is not acceptable to marry on a B pleasure visa...USCIS will not approve a green card...you have to apply for K1 Fiance visa.

I'm in the states from Ireland on a B2 pleasure visa. What forms should i file to live here. My boyfriend has offered to get married (he is a citizen).

I have been trying to live here for almost a year as all my family mother included are citizens, but now live in Ireland. The waiting list to do it through my mother is five years and is not guaranteed as she is not a resident. I also have a great job, in a small company that i want to keep, but cant stay in the states 5yrs on my pleasure visa waiting on the long waiting list through my mother. What to do?

Cheers

Sam
