If my fiance isn't a resident or citizen of his city and state, why is the cost so expensive? Is it better to fill out the forms yourself or with a lawyer or consultant?

You can do it filing by yourself, its cheaper than a lawyer or consultant. And better to start reading the guidelines of this site, it will help you understand the process. Goodluck!

It is not necessary to hire an attorney, but I must warn you....there are a lot of forms and documents to gather. The process is very long, even if everything goes perfectly and nothing is forgotten. You will wait approximately 6-8 months. I hired an attorney because I was afraid I would miss something and hold the process up longer than needed. Not to mention I am currently in Afghanistan working while we wait this process out. My attorney is in the US but has an office in Italy and he worked with us through Skype interviews...and he did not require all the money up front and allowed us to make payments. Not all attorneys will do this so be careful. Good luck to you!

Attorneys are just waiste of time and money. They will guarantee a lot, but can't do nothing really. VJ have a lot of members who are always willing to help.

You have to interview in a country where your fiance/fiancee is legally residing. So if he/she is not a legal resident in Italy, you will have to interview in their country of birth of any country where he/she can be legal residents.
