Do I Need to Get a Visa Too?

I was asked this question about guys needing visas twice
this week in emails; so I thought I'd get it on record in
case there are others who have the same question.

The visa is basically an extra step of precaution one
country wants before allowing citizens from another country
to enter. When I traveled to Brazil, they did require me
to get a visa prior to visiting. This will also be true in
China and Russia. However, that is more the exception than
the rule.

Most places on this planet regard the US citizen's passport
like a golden ticket. You can come and go with very little
restriction. You don't need any other document to get to
Ukraine, Costa Rica, or most every place you could go on a
romance tour. Other countries may have requirements, such as
Russia or China, but I wouldn't be intimidated by it. The
tour packet you receive will explain if anything else is required.

So what is the deal with the girl's visa? Well, she is coming
from a country that may have had some questionable people
try to enter the US in the past. For example, the US now has
friendly relations with many of the former Soviet nations, and the
people there seem to be very warm and welcoming to American
visitors. But the US government still likes having that
one extra step involved to verify identity and intent of people
coming here.

There are other reasons why the US may require visas from Russian,
Latin American, or Asian citizens. But the process in place
remains the same. I've worked with numerous guys as they've
gone through the process and, so far, none have had any
complications. It takes three to five months to have your
application approved. It may be another month or two
before you can arrange to have her in your home.

This is a very reasonable process. The documents
required are only trying to verify that you are both who
you say you are. That she has no criminal record or
disease. And that you are serious about your intent to
pursue marriage.

In my case, I went from the day I met Anna at a social to
the day we were married in 10 months. It's a very
reasonable time to get to know your future life partner so
you're comfortable with your decision.

You will be free to come and go as you want to. And she
will too once you get through the K-1 Visa and subsequent
travel documents.

Not much to worry about on your end, but even if you did have
to get a visa for your dating tour, I know you're the kind
of man who would do it and get it done. Just go and enjoy
being in exotic destinations around the world with
wonderful women who will see you as the hot commodity!
