Russian Girlfriend and K-1 Visa

How to date a Russian lady if you live few thousand miles away from her?

You will hardly find anyone today who has not hear about Russian marriage agencies and international dating services. There are approximately 1,500 of them on the internet.

Let us suppose that after a long search that you have found the lady of your dreams. You went to meet her a few times and everything tells you that you and your Eastern European lady both are made for each other. Your inner feelings tell you that you need to get married at once, but your brain tells that you need to get to know this woman a little bit longer. So what is the solution?

For USA citizens, the K-1 visa was created exactly to solve this dilemma. It allows your foreign bride to live in you country for up to 3 months. Which during this time you both must make a decision about whether to get married or to split up. She will have to go back home.

Note that your Russian bride cannot marry anyone else except you who applied for her visa. It eliminates an opportunity of a fake marriage from her side.

Here is one story.

Russian bride, Ludmila, met Joseph via the Internet. After their correspondence of 3 months, he went to see her in the Ukraine 3 different times. A period of 2 months followed at which time they fell in love and could not wait to be together again. Ludmila's parents were a little bit cautious about sudden changes in her life with her decision to leave her homeland to be with Joseph. The fact that K-1 visa gives absolute protection from the side of USA government calmed down her close relatives. It eventually took 7 month for his beloved bride to come to Joseph's place. They got married and it is now 3 years as they live together happily.

Thanks to a K-1 visa Ludmila and Joseph had a chance to know each other better, to live together some time before marriage that united them for the entire life. Of course, they sent gratitude testimonial to their marriage agency which helped them to meet each other.
