Where to marry?

[David and Karen 0]

I have looked through the forum and I can't seem to find reference to this.

After our K-1 is approved (aren't I optimistic), do we have to marry in the USA? Or can we marry anywhere within those 90 days after POE?

Just something that came up in discussion recently with friends regarding our future wedding plans.

Thanks for your input.

You have to marry in the US, because the K-1 is a single entry visa. If you enter the US, and leave before marrying, your visa is void and you'll have to go back home and wait for a K-3 or CR-1 to be approved. You need to marry in the US, file for AOS and Advance Parole and work authorization. You can't leave until you get your advance parole or else you won't be allowed back into the US.

That's what I thought. I was sure I had read it. But then after discussion I started to doubt myself.

Thanks for clearing it up.
