Signing in Hawaii

[fei23k 1]

Hello guys,

First time post, please forgive me if I miss anything.

I just recently submitted my I-129F (Aug 22), and go approved on Oct 4th, now it's in the process of NVC.

thanks to all of your Q&A here, there were no rejection in between.

So my fiancee, she's from Malaysia, and I are discussing about where to sign when the time comes, and we have came up an idea of signing in Hawaii.

I wonder would it be possible if we flight straight from Malaysia to Hawaii and get sign there? would her K-1 Visa allow?

Does she needs to go through some sort of check-in to the Immigration office first?

Sorry, I don't know anything

thanks for all your help!

What do you mean by sign?

[LionessDeon 2,060]

Where to sign what? You mean get married? Yes, you can marry in Hawaii.

Yes, she will have to go through POE.

Note: you may want to correct your timeline. Your country is showing as Armenia, the default country.

I don't get sign either but if it's the wedding then yes you can do that, she'll just have her POE on Hawaii.

Our marriage like getting a marriage license and have our ceremony there and getting our certificate.

Like a get-away marriage

Yes you can do that. Look up the requirements for obtaining a marriage license in the county your choosing in Hawaii.

You can get married anywhere in the USA. It doesn't have to be where you live.

We live in Hawai'i. It is easy to get a marriage license. Here is the link: http://health.hawaii.gov/vitalrecords/marriage-licenses/

There is now a way to download your marriage certificate (two very different things) in Hawai'i rather than wait the few weeks for the official certificate to be mailed. I THINK this is the link we used when were just married, but the officiant has to enter all of the data online for this to work for you.

There are plenty of ways as well as considerations to think of when getting married in Hawai'i. Here is a simple google search of "Getting married in Hawai'i. Best of luck to you and Aloha!
