3. Include supporting documents.
4. Pay the correct fees.
5. A successful "marriage" interview with USCIS.

If you are already engaged or married to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, immigrating based on this marriage is likely to be your best bet. The eligibility criteria are reasonably straightforward and the waiting periods are generally better, or at least no worse, than for most other types of visas.

If you are married to a U.S. citizen, there is no waiting period or quota to delay your entry into the United States. You will be subject to the usual time period it takes to process your paperwork and for the government to make sure you are not excludable for any reason, such as criminal past or health problems.

The total USCIS filing fees can vary. Here is a basic guideline of what you can expect to pay.

• Form I-485 Application to Adjust Status, Form I-131 Advance Parole, Form I-765 Employment Authorization - $1,140 USD (if filed together)
• Biometrics Fee - $85 USD
• Form I-130 Petition for Alien Relative (not required in all situations) - $535 USD
• Child applications fees are separate. 
• Children under 14 - $750
• Children 14 or older - $1,140 
• Other costs may include translation and photocopying charges, fees for getting the documents required for the visa application (such as passport, police certificates, birth certificates, etc.), and travel expenses.

USCIS has increased these marriage visa application fees as of December 23, 2016. Please ensure you take this into account when mailing your application to avoid delays.

Many people spend months trying to figure out how to apply. They post questions to forums, search the internet for endless documents to read … on and on. If they make a mistake, USCIS (US immigration) asks for more information, causing delays.
