Fiance(e) Immigration Journey

So these are the steps or the filings that a fiance(e) will normally do when he or she decides to go for the K1 or fiance(e) petition, from being a “fiance(e)” to finally becoming a citizen.

  1. I- 129F Application for the fiance(e) to come to the USA, this is the first step done by the petitioner/US citizen. If it gets approved, fiance(e) will have interview at the US embassy with her requirements
  2. I- 485 Application for Adjustment of Status,  this is done by the “fiance(e)/applicant” after the wedding to the petitioner/US Citizen
  3. I- 751 Application for Lifting of Conditional Status, this is filed by the “fiance(e)/applicant” 90 days  before his/her two year conditional permanent resident card  expires
  4. N-400 Application for Citizenship and Naturalization of the now Permanent Resident “Fiance(e)” after three years of residency

Of course every time you file you will have to pay the filing fee which is not cheap at all.

Anyway, I have completed the first three so I am now going to the path to citizenship. Hurray for me !
