Marriage after K-1

[NateM 0]

I wasn't sure what category is best for this post, but I'll try here...

My fiancee just arrived in the US from Thailand on a K-1 visa, and I know that we have 90 days to marry. What I'm wondering is, do we just have to marry and file paperwork with the county or state? OR, are there further steps involved? (For example, do we have to notify the USCIS in some way, or any other governmental agency within those 90 days?).

I'm trying to figure out about how much time to allow for all necessary processing to ensure my fiancee and I don't get married too late (as I would imagine it's not a good idea to wait until the 90th day ). I don't even know whether we're supposed to register with the county clerk or the state, and don't even know their approximate processing time (the county website just says "it can take some time," but doesn't specify). I live in Oregon if this info is of any help. Any advice or input would be most appreciated.

P.S. My fiancee mentioned something about possibly having to file or register with the Thai Embassy in Los Angeles...(???) I think she's confused regarding that, but I could be wrong. Any info on this would be helpful as well. Sorry for all the questions.

Read the guides, the reading will tell you what you have to do and what you have to know. Yes, you have to file a paperwork, don't wait the last day.

Happy reading.
