If you’re trying to start the immigration process with your partner, whether it’s a fiancé visa, spousal green card, or adjustment of status—getting legally married is the first step.

Does USCIS Accept Online Marriages?
Yes—but with one important condition.
The marriage must be legally valid in the jurisdiction where it was performed—and the couple must have consummated the marriage after the ceremony.
That’s why we use Utah’s legal remote marriage process, which is:
-
Fully legal in all 50 states
-
Backed by a government-issued license and certificate
-
Accepted by USCIS for spousal petitions (including I-130, K-1, CR-1, IR-1, and AOS)
We’ve helped couples successfully use their marriage certificates for family reunification, embassy processing, and green card interviews. Our immigration support page breaks it all down.
