K-3 Visas: Eligible Spouses
Immigrating to the United States presents a number of difficulties for anyone; however, it can be even more stressful when you are the foreign spouse of an American citizen trying to move so that your family can be together. Fortunately, there are options available to couples in this position, including the K-3 visa. Through this visa, eligible foreign spouses can apply for a nonimmigrant visa, while their American counterpart files a petition for immigration in the U.S.
At Garg & Associates, our Orange County immigration lawyers will do their utmost to ensure that the process of applying for an immigrant petition and K-3 visa goes smoothly, so that you and your spouse can be together as soon as possible. Contact our attorneys at 949-540-6704 to find out how we can help you today.
Eligibility Requirements
Not every foreign spouse of a U.S. citizen is able to apply for a K-3 visa, as there are certain requirements that need to be met before this type of visa is granted. In order to receive a K-3 visa, an applicant:
- May not be a same-sex spouse
- Must be legally married under U.S. law
- Must be the 1st spouse if the marriage is a polygamous marriage
- May be in a common law marriage, as long as it meets the other qualifications
If you or your spouse meets these criteria, don’t hesitate to contact a qualified immigration lawyer who can help you efficiently apply for a K-3 visa.
