A Visa To The Usa For My Thai Gf

[Dave_TN]

I have searched the forums and did find what i needed. I hope someone can help or point me in the right direction.

I am an american and my gf is thai. i want to bring her here so we can get married.

here is where the problem starts.

i have never been to thailand and i cant get a passport to go there. i am divorced and was hit with a huge back child support amount. here in the US, that disqualifies me from getting a passport until its paid.

I want to bring my gf here so we can get married. i have known her for 4 years and we talk all the time. literally everyday since we met. i know i may get some heat because we never met but i know i want to do this.

here is my plan..

to get her a visa to come to the US. We get married in the US while she is here. then we get her permanent residency and then get her daughter a visa to come and join us here. her daughter currently lives with her parents in the north.

my question is, will this work? or it not possible? if how do we go about getting the visa?

i dont mind hiring a lawyer there to make this happen.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Wonder if it will be like it was for that guy out of Little Britain I read about on a previous thread

ok, i'll bite. what is that supposed to mean?

You're going to marry a woman you've never met. Incredible. Is the universe of woman who would marry you so small that you need to dredge up someone from Thailand? In your future, I see another very messy divorce.

well i actually thought this was a legitimate site for visa info. looks as though i was wrong. i asked a simple question and these are the responses i got.

i found someone that i really clicked with, so she happened to be in thailand. i can see how you could be skeptical but to post such a rude response. that does not even come close the addressing the question i asked. in my book, that makes you a PRICK.

Hi All, My name is Dave and I have just signed up because someone on the Khon Kaen Forum very kindly referred me to this more specific site.

I have just read this thread and My relationship is also by Internet

AND very short term but we contemplating Marriage which is supprted by our families on both side and all consider the relationship and love between myself and my Fiancee to be genuine and based on Love (not money, materialism or "green card" type interests.

Whilst I do not agree with the language used by Dave_TN at all I DO agree with his disappointment to his enquiry.

May I ask BEFORE I risk subjecting myself to similar responses (from members on what they consider IS and IS NOT an acceptable bone fide relationship), whether it is the intention of members on this Forum to offer assistance and advice to other members specific enquiries wih regard to fact or whether it is normal to have have opinions offered on the validity of individual's relationships.

I ask this with humility and with NO intention to offend.

However I myself am in need of some serious Visa advice (but I do not wish comments on the logic or validity of my love between myself and my future wife (which I feel is personal and irrelevant).

I was extremely open and frank on the Khon Kaen but at the moment am shrinking from being my normal open self if I am going to risk comments such as

Is the universe of woman who would marry you so small that you need to dredge up someone from Thailand?

even if not intended to offend would certainly upset me.

I am not even sure if this quote isn't an insult to Thai people as I doubt that the decent people of Thailand would like to be referred to as "DREDGED UP" as I assume they have minds of their own as to whether they are, or are not interested in a person from another country.

Regards to all.

So what are we supposed to think with this quote? Would you give him the information to marry your daughter? How is he going to support a new wife and child if he is unwilling to pay his child support? Judgmental it may be; but this is a public forum and should be expected.

i am divorced and was hit with a huge back child support amount. here in the US, that disqualifies me from getting a passport until its paid.

I pay my child support and have never missed a payment. The "back child support" refers to the difference the divorce judge set and the juvenile judge set. the difference was over $2000 per month and it has been over 5 years since the divorce, thus the amount was large. not that i really needed to explain anything to you.

i have a new concept for this board. try asking a question before you act like a dumbass. you make accusations and you know nothing of what is going on. so once again, is there any intelligent members on this board who can answer my original question. or have a truely wasted my time with site. i am leaning to the latter based on what i have seen so far. my understanding was that this site was meant to help people with visa information related to thailand.

To gdhm:

i understand what you mean. maybe i was wrong for my language but i truely felt i kept it clean. i wanted to use many more choice words. i have been looking into just using an attorney. it seems the easiest way, in my case, to accomplish my goal. i wouldnt hold much hope of getting any real info here. i wish you the best of luck.

Of course you do not have to explain yourself and as I said I was being judgmental and provided the post so that you could. But believe it would have helped the readers if you had taken the time to explain yourself when you come here asking how to get (what is essentially a mail order bride) into the US.

The immigrant visa for marriage would be the legal avenue and if you use a lawyer I would use one in the US rather than in Thailand. But the fact you have never met may be a killer (you say you have known her 4 years but just got hit with the judgement so not sure how you could explain why you had not traveled earlier) but that is for a lawyer to determine.

I dare say since you have never met the lady there lies the problem - I think it will be hard for a visa granted on the fact alone.
