General Process
Looking to apply for a K-1 fiancé visa? The general K-1 visa process looks the same for Indian applicants as it does for applicants from other countries.

Marriage-Based Green Cards
General Process
If you and your partner are already married, or considering marriage soon, you may be thinking about applying for a marriage-based green card. Similar to the K-1 visa, the marriage-based green card process is standard for Indian applicants. Wait times, costs, and requirements differ depending on where the Indian-born spouse lives and whether the sponsoring spouse is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. More information can be found in Boundless’ marriage-based green card guide. Here’s a more detailed breakdown of the costs and processing times for your specific situation:

K-2 VISAS
Looking to immigrate from India with your children? The K-2 visa can be used by the children of a K-1 fiancé visa holder to move to the U.S. at the same time as their parent.
Boundless has helped many families with the K-2 visa, and we can include any unmarried children under the age of 21 on your visa application for free. Learn more about our K-1 and K-2 package.
IR-2 CHILD VISAS
If you’re a U.S. citizen and your child is living in India, it may be possible to sponsor them for a green card through the IR-2 child visa process. More information on the process and requirements can be found in Boundless’ IR-2 guide.
Boundless can help you include your children on your green card application for just $450 per child. Check your family’s eligibility here.

Special Considerations
VISA BULLETIN INFORMATION
If you’re an Indian national being sponsored for a green card by an employer or family member, you may have heard about the Visa Bulletin.
Each month, the Visa Bulletin is published by the Department of State (DHS) to display which adjustment of status applications can move forward, based on the original filing date of the sponsorship petition. It also provides visa applicants with a general estimate on green card processing times, based on how quickly the “line” is moving for specific categories.
The wait time for a green card is often longer—and sometimes much longer—for Indian nationals, because India is one of several countries whose annual demand for green cards exceeds the 7% “country cap” placed on the number of green cards issued per year. Every month, Boundless releases visa bulletin explainers that demystify this process and show trends over time, so that you can keep up to date with the green card backlog and specific wait times for Indian nationals.
H1-B VISAS AND EMPLOYMENT-BASED IMMIGRATION
Not every Indian national living in the U.S. has taken the family immigration route. It is possible to immigrate to the U.S. through employment sponsorship. The H-1B visa is a nonimmigrant work visa that allows U.S. employers to hire foreign workers for specialty jobs that require a bachelor’s degree or equivalent. This can include occupations in fields such as IT, finance, engineering, architecture or more.
The H-1B is a popular visa for those looking to work (and live) permanently in the U.S.. For more information on H1-B visa eligibility, the application process and other common questions, check out Boundless’ “H1-B Visa, Explained” guide.
FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
Moving to the U.S. and navigating a different financial system can be a challenge. Boundless put together some helpful finance tips and resources for new immigrants in the U.S. in our financial guide.
Our financial guide provides information on establishing your financial footprint in the U.S., such as how to conduct banking services in the U.S. and how to build credit and obtain credit cards.
