Какую визу необходимо иметь гражданину Америки при въезде в Россию для заключения брака? Пакет каких документов необходимо иметь гражданину Америки? Какими должны быть наши дальнейшие действия, если мы предполагаем жить на родине мужа?
Dear Svetlana,
As United State Citizen your husband has right to bring his fiancee or wife in the United States and/or apply for her Permanent Resident Status (green card) outside or in the United States.
There are K-1 (fiancee) and K-3 (wife) visas available to you if you wish to move to US immediately and then receive the green card. You also can apply for the green card when you are still in Russia and only after getting the card move to US. There are slightly different procedure for K visas. My preference is K-1. And there are different procedure if you wish to get the green card in Russia. It is quite difficult to satisfy the INS requirements for the K visas and/or green card application without professional help. If you do it outside of US the "Consular" process is even more complicated. This is hopefully done just once in a life time and you need to have help of competent immigration attorney.
Feel free to contact me if and when you wish to proceed and I will provide detailed instruction for you and your husband.
