US K1 Visa K1 Visa Process – Fiancee Visa Process – USCIS Processing Times – Adjustment of Status

Have you recently met a woman from Russia, and now you have decided to get married and live together in the USA? The majority of American men take advantage of the K1 Fiancee Visa Process, also known as the K1 visa, due to the fact that it is consistently the most expediant visa option available to help a lady from Russia immigrate to the USA. If you have already married a Russian woman outside of the USA, you will not qualify for a K1 visa. If this is your situation, you will then have to return back to the USA without your new spouse, then file for a Spousal Visa. If you have been legally residing in Russia consistantly for more than six months, you may be able to do a direct filing with the consulate in Moscow. Contact them to see if you qualify.

The K1 Visa will first need to be filed at the USCIS in the USA. To understand how to file a K1 visa, please click here. After the application is filed, expect approximately 5 months for the application to be approved in the USA. When the application is finally approved, it will be sent to the National Visa Center in New Hampshire for final processing. This usually takes about two weeks. When the NVC completes their part of the process, the entire K1 visa petition will be forwarded directly to the U.S. Embassy in Moscow. Moscow processes all K1 visa applications for the entire country. No matter what city your fiancee resides in within Russia, all applicants must travel to Moscow for the interview.

To obtain a Russian police certificate, the Russian citizen can contact the Main Information Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs or from the Information Center of the subject to the jurisdiction of the Russian Federation. The website is located at :
