What if a couple has not met during the two years immediately preceding the two year filing of the K-1 visa petition?
Unfortunately, the two year meeting requirement is written into the statute and cannot be ignored. The immigration agency will not grant the K-1 visa unless the couple has met during the two years immediate preceding the K-1 visa filing, or if the couple demonstrates that they are eligible for a waiver of the meeting requirement.
