The Marriage Visa is issued as per the United States Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) for the foreign spouses of US citizens. Certain requirements or terms and conditions have to be followed as per the laws of the United States in order to obtain this visa.

This visa is basically a petition for a family based immigrant. Here, the US citizen files a petition for his immediate relative for an immigrant status. The immediate relatives include spouses, parents and children who are minor and unmarried which also include stepchildren. However, when it comes to stepchildren, this relationship should have been formed before the children were 18 years of age. It has to be realized that this immigrant visa is a form of Green Card only which permits the immigrant to live and work in the US.

Incase, a relative does not fall in the immediate relative category, he would be termed as the derivative beneficiary. So, in such a case, a separate petition has to be filed for each of such relatives.

It has to be remembered that before filing either the K1 Fiancé visa or an immediate relative petition, the major part of the process for immigration should have been done with before the immigrant’s entry into the nation. This is because the immigrant would enter the nation as a Green Card which means that the person would be eligible to find work the day he/she lands in the nation. This means that the background check on the applicant which includes the immigration history of the applicant, bona fides of the relationship etc. are carried out. With this, the applicant is also interview by the consular officers before obtaining a visa.  The interview is conducted at a US Embassy in the native country of the applicant of which the applicant is a citizen.

The requirements for both the marriage visa as well as for the K1 Fiancé visa are more or less similar. The proof provided should be sufficient that the relationship with the US citizen is genuine. Thus, the evidence should include a marriage bona fide which is honest; legitimate as well as sincere. This should prove that the couple is legally and is not trying to evade the laws pertaining to immigration. Also, if the couple was into a previous marriage, they have to prove that it has been terminated before walking into this relationship.

To know more, it is best to contact an immigration and visa who deals with US immigration. He is always updated with the latest and the correct procedure to follow. However, make sure that you are consulting a genuine and a registered expert with a decent amount of experience.

Many of us feel that just by receiving a stamp on the visa, we have the permission to enter the United States. But we are hugely mistaken. It is understood to reach such assumptions, but sooner such myths are cleared, the better it is. Just because one holds a visa which is a legal door of entry into the United States is not a good reason enough to take things for granted. The final decision to grant you a permission of entry is made by the Department of Homeland Security and the US Customs and Border Protection authorities.

Once you land in the United States, you would be a part of the US-VISIT entry-exit program. With this, some of the candidates might even have to register with the Special Registration program.

After you have been given a permit of entry by the officials from the Border Protection, the Arrival-Departure Record which is the Form I-94 is added to your passport. All the dates pertaining to your approved visits would be entered in this form. This form is the only legal document which proves that you are entering the country lawfully. So, it is very important to carry this document.

The date mentioned in the form I-94 as your last day as a legal alien should be taken very seriously. This is because if you bypass this date, you would be residing as an illegal in the United States. So, you must leave the nation before this date ends. Incase you are eligible to get your visa renewed or get your status adjusted, you can avail the option if you wish to reside in the United States. However, if you overstay the expiry date, you would be committing an offence and your visa would be nullified. As per the immigration laws of the United States, you would be violating them.

Before you set off, make sure that you have all the relevant and important documents which you would have to produce at the Border Protection to the officials post landing. The Border Protection authorities have all the right to inspect and verify your documents. They might even check your luggage and other belongings. Also, you might even be asked questions regarding your reasons for travel and the purpose for entering the United States.

If you are being inspected, there is no need for you to be nervous. You have to understand that the officials at the Border are doing their duty which is to secure their homeland. With this, they implement the laws that are brought out by the federal authorities. There are chances that they might scare but these people are mere professionals whose main purpose is to protect their borders. So, do not take it to heart. It is suggested that you be patient with the entire process and you would soon be cleared.

To know more, it is best that you contact an Immigration and Visa expert who can give you an insight into such process.

The new visa requirements for Mexicans intending to visit Canada have been made tougher. This has directly left an impact on the number of tourists arriving in Canada, thanks to the stringent visa requirements.

For instance, daughter of a teacher (who was working on work permit and was employed in Houston, Tax) was intending to mark her visit to Montreal with her siblings and meet their parents. But when she applied for the visa, the officials informed her that she has to visit Los Angeles or Washington, D.C. in order to get the visas which are granted to residents of Mexico intending to visit Canada.

Therefore, the daughter had to cancel her plans and the parents had to fly back to Houston to meet their kids. It has been more than a year now that the daughter now managed to get her Travel Visa to enter the country while she was on her vacation back to her homeland.

This is the dilemma faced by all the Mexicans who are intending to visit Canada. They have to go through rigid visa regulations and travel here and there in order to get their visas. And above all, there is no surety as to how much time would be taken to get the visas.

If this is the case of known Mexican residents, imagine the case of unknown Mexican residents intending to visit their parents or relatives in Canada. How much they would have to suffer when they would be asked to show their documents and travel here and there in an attempt to get their visas.

Best would be to take advise from an expert Immigration and Visa expert (www.abhinav.com) and go about the process.
