Helping Couples Build Their Future Together in the United States
Marriage-Based Immigration Attorney In Orlando, Florida
Can I Bring My Fiancé To The United States?
If you’ve fallen in love with someone who is not a United States citizen and you plan to build your life together here, there are immigration options available to help reunite you. If you are engaged, your fiancé may qualify for a K-1 fiancé visa, allowing them to enter the U.S. so you can marry here. If you are already married, your spouse may apply for a visa—and eventually a green card—through the family-based immigration process.
Although the steps may seem straightforward, the process can be lengthy and requires careful attention to specific requirements. After celebrating your engagement, your next call should be to an immigration attorney who can guide you through the process from start to finish.
Attorney Rachelle R. Grand-Pierre, Esq. is here to help you and your partner move forward with confidence. Contact RGP Law Firm PLLC today to begin your journey together.

What Can an Immigration Lawyer Help Us With?
Although it is entirely possible to apply for a K-1 fiancé visa on your own, many couples soon realize that the entire process can take significantly longer when they attempt to navigate it without professional guidance. Every single requirement must be followed meticulously, and even minor mistakes—such as missing a signature or not providing adequate evidence—can lead to frustrating delays or requests for additional information that can prolong your waiting period. By working with a qualified immigration attorney, you can greatly reduce the stress associated with the application process, keep your case on track, and allow yourself to focus on what truly matters: planning your wedding and celebrating your love, rather than worrying incessantly about complex paperwork.
Ensuring that your fiancé visa petition is not only complete but also accurate and supported by the appropriate documentation can make a substantial difference in how smoothly and efficiently the entire process moves forward. Attorney Rachelle R. Grand-Pierre, Esq. understands these nuances and is here to help you avoid unnecessary setbacks, guiding you toward approval with confidence and peace of mind. Don’t hesitate to take that important first step; schedule your K-1 consultation today to get your journey started in the best possible way.
What Happens During the Fiancé Visa Application Process?
The first step in the fiancé visa process is filing the petition. Along with this petition, you must also submit an Affidavit of Support (Form I-864). This form carries significant responsibility, as signing it means you agree to financially support your spouse for a period of time—even if the marriage later ends. Your obligation continues until your spouse becomes a U.S. citizen or completes the required 40 quarters of work.
After the petition is approved, your fiancé will need to visit a U.S. embassy or consulate in their home country to complete the visa process. Depending on their situation, they may also need to meet certain health requirements before a visa is issued. Once your fiancé arrives in the United States, the two of you must marry within 90 days, without exception.
Because this process involves strict timelines and multiple steps, careful coordination is essential. Attorney Rachelle R. Grand-Pierre, Esq. can help guide you through each stage—from the initial petition to the marriage deadline and the steps that follow toward a green card. She is here to make the journey smoother as you prepare for your life together.
