Before I get grilled here, this site has some excellent information on applying for a K1 Visa & after serious thought, I know I can follow the step by step procedures for obtaining a K1, but my Thai Fiance lives in Isan, I'm afraid of not being there to hold her hand thru this process & having someone explain to her in Thai & in contact with her, while I'm in the states, would give me a better piece of mind.

Has anyone went that route & can you recommend a good Thai Lawyer?

Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

I used these guys to get my THAI marriage visa. They handled everything pretty good. Took care of my marraige there, and filing the paperwork with the Ministry of Foreign affairs etc.

Not sure how they are for getting a US visa. They have 2 packages. One where you do everything on the US side, and the handle the Thai part (which isn't much.) And a more expensive package where they do everything.

Note:

Please fill out I-130, wait 6 months for approval, then 3 more months for an interview. (Unless of course we've bombed your country into the stone age, then you qualify for expedited processing.)
