I have known a man in a chatting site for a long time and we develop a romantic relationship.
His from U. S. divorced with 7 yrs old son and I am single. Can I go U.S. without him visiting to Philippines? What kind of visa will I need to get to enter U.S the easiest and fastest way?thanks

My wife is a Philippina. We met in Saudi Arabia more than 15 years ago, and now live in USA. Immigration had us doing "backflips" for 3 years before they finally let her in... My best advice is get married in Philippines, then come to USA. Republic of Philippines marriages are recognized in USA. Fiancé visas are hard to get right now. ICE is having a difficult time with immigration, and that difficulty "spills" over onto normal people, whom are trying to do things "right". Good luck...

To be eligible to apply for K-1 visa, you have to meet him in person at least once in the past 2 years.

I personally disagree with jumping into marriage with a stranger.. online dating can be very dangerous. Every month we have cases that women came to US can were turned into prostitutes, became victims of domestic violence, etc. Many ended up being deported. The truth is not all American men can file petition for foreign spouse. Don't rush... make sure you know him well.. not just on the screen. If he has record of domestic violence, or registered sex offender, or bankruptcy, other serious crimes, etc... just say Adios!

Good luck..
