Hello everyone from the Philippines. I met my lovely fiancee two years ago in the Philippines and I have been back twice to see her. We have lived together for almost 8 months. Her anullment should be completed by the end of August and Im heading back to the Philippines on Sept 1st and intend to stay for at least six months. My question is would it be better to get married as soon as I get there on do the K-1 visa? It seems like it would be simpler to get married as soon as I get there vs giving a letter on intent to marry when she comes. I am only looking at what makes the most sense and hopefully we can be back in the states by next March or April.

Thanks,

Richard

Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.
