marriage on a B2 with no intention of AOS

[kristinmadu 0]

SO we got our B2 and we'd like to get married while we're in the US and return to our lives abroad.

can we get married and just leave, or will we run into problems on my fiancee's next entry into the US? i'm reading lots of conflicting info...

thanks!

just found the answer to my own question after a lot of searching, if anyone's interested...

N11.1-1.--Fiance(e) of U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident Alien. An alien proceeding to the United States to marry a U.S. citizen is classifiable K-1 as a nonimmigrant under INA 101(a)(15)(K). [see 22 CFR 41.81.] The prospective spouse of a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident may, however, be classified B-2 visitor in cases where the consular officer is satisfied that the fiance(e) intends to return to a residence abroad soon after the marriage.

No issues, however, upon marriage, when you return to the US, you would need to show strong ties back home (to alleviate immigration worries), since the person is now married to an USC.
