I'm a US born citizen and my fiance is a South African citizen. Is he eligible for immigration and what is the best way for him to immigrate here?

Answered by attorney Maria Teresa Miller
Immigration lawyer at Martin Law
It would be possible for you to go to South African, get married and then begin the process to bring him to the US. As you stated, you can also take the K visa route. The K visa is not necessarily more cumbersome, but the immigration service usually wants to see that you have met in person at least twice. The K visa route can also be a little faster, but you would be on a strict timeline for getting married upon your fiancé’s entry.

How can I get my green card if I have three misdemeanors?

Hello: He will most likely need a Waiver. *Waiver of Inadmissibility* A Waiver of Inadmissibility will have to be obtained. This is an application that will include a legal brief, forms, documents, exhibits, declarations and other evidence. My firm can prepare the entire waiver, and attach all of the necessary documents. It will take several months for the decision, and if done correctly, there is a good chance of an approval. The Waiver essentially makes the crime or ground of ineligibility disappear so that entry or re-entry will be allowed into the U.S. Please note that the Waiver is the critical part of this application, and unless approved, there cannot be any other petition that will allow entry into the U.S. Therefore, the Waiver must be prepared with significant supporting documents.

No waiting period. Once you have been sworn in as a U.S. citizen and have your naturalization certificate, you can begin the process.
