You’re engaged or married to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, and all you want is the right to be together in the United States. Should be simple, right? It’s not.

- Avoid common—and serious—mistakes.
- Prepare for meetings with officials.
- Prove your marriage is real—not a fraud.
- Deal with the two-year testing period for new marriages.
The 11th edition covers the latest, higher income requirements, easing of Trump-era regulations that put more immigrants at risk of being denied visas as a likely “public charge,” and a new COVID vaccine requirement. It also provides handy checklists and illustrative sample forms.
Use this book if you are living in the United States or overseas and:
- your fiancé is a U.S. citizen
- your spouse is a U.S. citizen, or
- your spouse is a U.S. permanent resident.
