New to forums, k1 or k3 visa help please
Hello my fiance and I are seeking to keep her in the country and continue working. We spoke to a lawyer today about the costs and requirements for everything she needs.
At the moment she is on a J1 visa working on 1 year internship. They said it was going to be about 1950$ without government fees tied in.
This is a little steep so we found this website by simply googling whether we should or need a lawyer to do this.
Obviously we would like to spend as little money as possible on this.
The thread I read slightly was saying in brief that you don't necessarily need a lawyer for the filing and fiance visa but we are under the impression it would assist in getting the waiver.
Because she is currently working and on a J1 visa it is a non-immigrant type so she may have to go back to Slovenia if she is unable to file her waiver successfully. (Her country is not on the list for home-stay requirement.)
I'm not sure if it helps or if I've given enough information, but she is a law-abiding person with no troubled legal problems as well as no children.
She has two masters degrees and speaks six languages so I feel it wouldn't be to hard to convince the government she is of value to the country and not a problem.
I have read through some of the guide on k1,k3, etc. and looked at the forms but because I'm new to this we'd appreciate any kind of assistance or advice.
