USC Guy considering to marry a girl in India

[VISA QUESTIONS]

hi,

US Citizen guy considering to marry a girl from India.  But he wants to get married in USA and not in India, because

1- Guy has no Family back in India and

2- His mother has severe health issues and  cannot travel to India. We'd like for mom to be present in marriage.

The girl's brothers are in US on student visa, studying in a reputed university. Her parents has the visitor's visa approved and  they (parents) planned to visit US for their son's graduation but couldn't visit because of pandemic outbreak.  However,  the girl  do not have visit visa. 

What are our options?? or chances for the girl (25) to get B2 visa, if they apply?  Is there anything the guy could do make the visit visa situation possible? for marriage purposes?

K1 fiancé(e) visa is the more appropriate visa. The purpose of this visa is to permit fiancé of a U.S. citizen to travel to the U.S. for the purpose of getting married. B2 is not the most  appropriate visa. At the time of applying for a B2 visa, one needs to be honest on the purpose of visit. Doing that would make it extremely difficult to overcome the presumption of immigrant intent. Even if a visa is approved, at the time of entry, the CBP officials will restrict the entry to less than 90 days and mostly with an annotation reading “No adjustment or change of status permitted”. So, if all the requirements are met, it is best to apply for a K1 visa though it may take longer. If you want to evaluate your options and understand the possibilities of successful visa application, feel free to contact one of our attorneys by sending an email to info@murthyindia.com.

In these days of profound unrest and the possible cusp of change, it would be expedient for people responding to be polite and to the point instead of pontificating and using words betraying contempt of others. I have no idea why the Law Firm cannot ask for the norms to be followed especially if there is a recurrent and repetitive strain of hostile answers aimed at posters from one country.

A simple answer would be "No B2, but K1".

I agree, people like the one above should not be allowed to post in any public forum. Notice the original response to OP only consisted of extremely negative, contempt full, condescending language. No mention of a helpful response of a K1 visa, which was instead mentioned by an actual professional.
