C-Euro posted:Since I see people talking about it in specifics, what's the general process for an American citizen like me to get married to a non-US citizen and have her live with me here in the States? My girlfriend is an international student from Thailand currently in grad school here, and with me locking down a stable job with good pay and her finishing her program by the end of the year, now seems as good a time as any to get ready for question-popping. In a perfect world I would be proposing on our anniversary this fall, but is there anything I can start reading or paperwork I can start working through in order to get a head start on that specific kind of immigration process? This is probably going to be my situation in the near future, with the caveat that my girlfriend will likely not be in the country when we plan to settle down and get married, so I'm interested in this advice too.

Out of curiosity, how long did this whole process take? Me and my girlfriend are hopefully planning on doing this in a year or two.

Sharks Below posted:I appreciate that it's the fastest route but it still means I have to live apart from my husband That's basically my girlfriend's plan when we finally get hitched (she's a student now but she has to go back to her family in China for a bit when she graduates) and we're still budgeting a year or so until she can finally come over for good. poo poo sucks, I wish they'd just hire more people but there's probably some minimum wait time for processing I don't know about that would still make it like a 4 month wait.

Hyperlynx posted:Why the hell does the US make travellers go through immigration and customs when they're not going to the US but are just transiting to another country? I don't know any other country that does that. Waste of everyone's time. China does that and they'll give you a 24 hour visa so you can go spend money in Beijing while you wait for your flight.
