A couple of questions regarding entry into the U.S. / marriage certificate

[apotter 0]

Hey guys, thank you for all your past help and suggestions. We have successfully acquired the K-1 visa (my fiancee is from Colombia). In order for her to pass onto the airplane and past customs and immigration in the U.S., all she needs is the K-1 visa packet, her passport, and medical records? Is this correct?

Also, in regards to the marriage certificate, do you know how difficult it is to obtain this (ie for marrying in Ohio)? Is it more of a hassle with the K-1? Are there any web resources for this? Thank you for all your invaluable help and advice.

Congrads on getting approved!!

I am not sure about the medical records. We were told to have the visa packet and passport.

There shouldnt be an issue getting the marriage certificate/license.

They really just ask for bacic information.

Here is a site for your reference. You can fill the application out online and then take it in.

She needs her passport which includes the visa, the envelope they sent you that says do not open and her x-ray.

We got our license in Cleveland on a K-1 and no problems at all.

Congratulations on your fiancee's approval!

You could call your local court and ask what kind of ID they will require for obtaining the marriage license. Some things are easier/better to ask in person than trying to find the information online. It should be easy though (it's easy to get married, but difficult and expensive to get divorced!).

Best wishes!

You won't have an issue getting a marriage license. If your state requires blood tests and/or waiting periods you have to abide by those just as if you were marrying your high school sweetheart. Relax and enjoy your engagement. Congratulations.
