Asked in Immigration Law for Georgia

Q: American citizen marrying an Australia citizen? How to get visa for the Australian to come work and live together?

My name is Hannah and I am an Australian citizen currently dating an American who lives in Georgia. We have visited each other's countries on and off for the past 2 years on the 90 day travel visa. We are looking for something more permanent and I would like to move to the US to live with him and work. We are wondering what our options are for me to do this and also if we were to get married how this would work? Thank you for your time in advance.

A: The fastest route is for you to get a fiancé visa and then marry him within 90 days of entry and then adjust status to obtain your green card. The fiancé visa takes about 9 to 11 months to get after its applied for. Counsel anywhere in the USA can represent you. Some of us charge very affordable flat fees to represent you from start to finish.
