Hi,
I am currently on a F1 visa. My fiancee is currently in India. Since I am unable to take a vacation and go to India for my marriage, I am thinking that probably my fiancee can visit the U.S on a B2 visa. We can then get married here in the U.S.

Does any one know of people who have gone through a similar situation and if we do this what is the process for my wife to get her status changed from B2 to F2 ?

Any information or guidance is much appreciated.
Thanks.
 
I am also in a similar situation where I am unable to go to India for the marriage with my fiancee is India. Is it possible for her to come here in a B2 Visa first then we marry here and she change her status to F2. If this can be done is it necessary that she go back to India or the VISA or can she change her status while she is here.
 
all you need to do is file for adjustment of status before the expiration of her I94, once approved she can stay legally in the country, however if either of you has cause to leave the country, you'll need a valid F1/F2 visa stamp on your passport to re-enter.
I guess the first hurdle is for your fiancees to obtain a B2 visa.
 
Thanks for the reply bhoray. I really appreciate it. What would be the necessary documents that I would need for me to file for adjustment of status before the expirtation of her I94.
