Hi, everyone. new guy here. So my concern on applying for a K-1 visa is how can I become eligilbe? I mean, the requirements are there, and I mostly got everything i need but how do they determine if I am eligible? Do they look at my income,credit history, background? If they do, how much should i earn to be eligible? anything else i should know or have to be eligible the first time i apply?

If you meet the requirements you are eligible. More precisely if you meet the requirements for the petition the petition will be approved and your fiancee can APPLY for a visa. The petition is an application to make an application. They do not check credit.

Read through the guides and instructions.

  • Are you a US citizen?
  • Have you never been convicted of a crime that would fall under the Adam Walsh Act? (Mostly sex crimes involving a minor.)
  • Have you never been convicted of a crime involving immigration law?
  • Have you not had an I-129F petition approved within the past two years, nor submitted two or more I-129F petitions anytime in the past? (Waiver required otherwise.)
  • Do you have a valid fiance/fiancee relationship with a foreigner of the opposite sex?
  • Have you personally met with your fiancee, face-to-face, at some point within the last two years, and can you provide evidence to prove this?
  • Are you committed to marrying your fiancee within 90 days of her arrival in the US?

If you can answer "yes" to all of these questions then you should be able to to submit a petition and have it approved.

  • Do you have income of at least 125% of the poverty guidelines for your household size, including your fiancee?
  • Has your fiancee never been convicted of any serious crimes?
  • Does your fiancee not have any communicable diseases that would be a health threat to other people in the US?
  • Has your fiancee never been deported from the US?
  • Has your fiancee not overstayed their lawful status in the US for more than 180 days (within the last 3 years), or overstayed for more than one year (within the last 10 years)?
  • Can your fiancee provide sufficient evidence at an interview to convince a consular officer that your relationship is bona fide?
  • Is your fiancee committed to marrying you within 90 days of her arrival in the US?

If you can answer "yes" to all of these questions then your fiancee has a good shot at getting a visa once your petition is approved.
