Introduction:

The 'K-2 Visa' is designed for the children of a foreign-citizen fiancé(e) who is moving to the United States on a K-1 Visa. It's a way for these children to join their parents during this big life change, ensuring families can stay together.

Detailed Explanation:

To get a K-2 Visa, the child must be under 21 years old and not married. The visa is linked to the parent’s K-1 Visa application. Once in the U.S., the children can attend school and enjoy life with their parents and soon-to-be new family member, the U.S. citizen. After the parent’s marriage, the children can also apply to stay in the U.S. permanently.

Application Process:

When the parent applies for a K-1 Visa, they must also apply for K-2 Visas for their children. This involves filling out forms and proofing that they are the parent’s children, like birth certificates. The children might also need a visa interview, usually with their parents.

Visa Types and K-2 Visa Relevance:

• Family Unity: Allows children to accompany their parents to marry a U.S. citizen.

• Education and Living in the U.S.: Kids can go to school and live in the U.S. while their parents get married and start a new life there.

Examples and Use Cases:

• A single mother from the Philippines with two kids gets engaged to a U.S. citizen and applies for K-1 and K-2 Visas to start their new life in the U.S.

• A K-1 Visa holder from Canada brings his 10-year-old daughter to the U.S. on a K-2 Visa.
