Hi everyone,
I've been researching where would be the best place for me and my boyfriend to get married? U.S. or France? We are going to live in Paris first, then probably end up moving back to the States at some point.
So, I am an American living in Los Angeles. He is French living in Paris. We met over a year ago.
The most important thing right now is for me to obtain a residence permit. Does that allow me to work legally in Paris?
Secondly, we want to make sure he will have a green card or at least it's easier for him to apply one in the States whenever we are ready to move back.
Having said that, should I:
option a) apply for a long term visitor visa, go to Paris, get married to him, then apply for the residency card. Then figure out how to help me obtain a green card to prepare for future?
or
option b) have him apply for K1 fiancé visa, we get married in LA, then we get this marriage recognized in France.
option c) he comes without a k1 visa, we get married during his 3 months stay, then move back to France?
Thank you!
