The Green Card through Marriage Application Guide provides a step-by-step guide for filing your Green Card application. It is easy to follow and understand. It is possible to get a K-1 Fiancee or Fiance Visa for a foreign national who is not currently in the United States. This allows the individual to come to the United States to marry a U.S citizen.

All numerical quota restrictions are not applicable to Green Card applications through marriage.

Over 450,000 Americans marry foreign-born people each year and apply for permanent residency or a Green Card in the United States. U.S. citizens’ spouses are “immediate relatives” and are therefore exempt from any numerical quota restrictions. Foreign nationals can marry U.S. citizens and receive unlimited Green Cards.
