Long-distance relationships have challenges that are sometimes difficult to overcome, but consider if the distance traveled was halfway around the world and a couple had just 90 days to decide whether the courtship should conclude with marriage. That's the situation facing the men and women profiled in this series, which shares the complexities of international romances. Using a visa that allows foreign fiancees of American citizens to travel to the U.S., the women experience life in the States with their prospective husbands for the first time. Culture and language barriers must be overcome -- not to mention the stigma of being thought of as mail-order brides -- but here's the elephant in the room: The couples must marry before the visas expire in 90 days, or else the women have to immediately return to their countries. With the clock ticking, these couples discover if their "happily ever after" is meant to be.

Just confirms the fact that pedophiles which usually strike out in Eastern Europe set their sites on SE Asia.
Featured here a 58 year old American from Baltimore, MD and a 19 year old Filipino teen from Cebu, Philippines.
A comment below the video really nailed it, "That 19 yr old filipina is hot. Does she know she's going to be nothing more than a dirty old man's fuck doll till he finally croaks of a heart attack?"
K-dag,,, you actually have less than 90days, because you have to allow some time for the mail,,, and if you made any mistakes,, like mailing your form to the wrong office, you may need to re-mail it.
The stigma isn’t just her being a mail order bride,,, but the stigma of the guy needing to find a mail order bride. No local women wanting you??
Depending on where you live, her accent might stick out like a sore thumb. This may not happen in a city like NY,,, but in a Wis city of less than 10,000,, everyone within earshot will turn and stare every time she says anything.
This isn’t what I think or a guess,,, it is my own experience!
The shooter in the San Bernardino government facility went to Saudi Arabia and met a lady from Pakistan during a religious pilgrimage and then applied for the K-1 visa to bring her to the USA. After the 90 days were up, they got married and she got her permanent residency earlier this year. They also recently had a baby and were given a baby shower by the coworkers. The lady appears to have posted some Facebook entries about ISIS under an alias identity that were later taken down. They stockpiled large amounts of firearms and ammunition and made several pipebombs.
On the immigration applications, a question that is asked is whether you are a member of the Communist or Fascist parties. They will need to add a new question about if you are affliated with or an adherent to the principles of jihad now.
Or maybe it's not a question if the local women won't have you. Maybe you're just tired of American women's crappy attitude. I was married for 20 years I had no problem when I got a divorce I was dating all kinds of American women, there was just nothing that I wanted. thats why i met my wife in ukraine, dated her for nearly 3 years and 6 2 week+ trips then has 84 days on top of that to decide. Best idea I ever had. we are celebrating our second anniversary and another week.
Apparently this couple are showing opportunistic attitudes from the beginning. Looks like, they're ok with it. I'm sure there's a prenup.
And how about that Mormon who probably never seen a vagina, went to Prague to do some "ministry" and brought back a hot Russian club dancer!!!
LR, I hope you got my PM.... Actually, she will take her 4 weeks of vacation. ( a win-win situation) therefore, I will have less than that to make a decision. Anyway....The stigma of mail order brides will be overcome with patience and understanding. If someone tells me " no local woman wants you?" I just tell them, I got my war trophy from my overseas tours! LOL
DC, I believe the K1 visas applications from any ex Soviet country and Middle East will be scrutinized for espionage or terrorism connections. But on the other hand we are bringing 10K Syrian refugees and Canada 25K. So any nut headed can either fly in or cross the border to kill us during a Holiday party. California have a ton of guns restrictions, more than any other state ( not an NRA friendly state ) but those two were armed to the teeth.
TomShea K-dag,,,, What I wrote about: “No women wanting you/us” is what a lot of people think when we go to a poor country looking for a wife.
I dated a lot years ago too, and I should have spent more of my time looking for a wife here,,, instead of screwing around.
There are a lot of women here that are looking for a man,,,, but most are either over 200lbs,,, or have several kids. I usually do my shopping late at night to avoid such women,,, but lately I’ve had to do it during the day. The last time, a little girl told her mommy that I was cute. Back a while, I had a little kid come up to me asking if I wanted to be their daddy?? Women seem to go out of their way in stores to block my path,,,, trying to strike up a conversation. I try to be polite,,,, but there is very little attraction with these women. The good looking ones are already married.
I have some funny stories from my doctor and dentist visits too. The last time I had my blood pressure checked, I had to extend my arm out over the corner of the desk. The nurse straddled my arm,,, and she was just the right height. I didn’t pull my arm back, or say anything.
Last year, I had a crown put on a tooth, and the temporary crown had to be removed, and the base cleaned up. The nurse was a short girl with one hell of a figure. She didn’t work on one side or the other of me,,,, she worked from behind me while I was laying down. My head was perfectly cradled between her boobs!! When she reached for a tool,,, she pulled my head right off of the table!! I felt like paying her a few bucks!
I saw an update on TV earlier today about the San Bernardino shooter. It appears that a relative of his married a Ukrainian lady whose sister married the guy who bought the semi-automatic rifles for the couple. His family was not aware that he was married. So it seems that internet dating is involved with several family members of the shooters.
But seriously how much can you learn from the show? It's like foreign wife 1:01. If you can learn something from the show you haven't done enough research. It's amazing when I watch this show I think about how completely ineligible my Ukrainian wife and I would be for this. There's no drama its just a very happy couple going about very ordinary lives.
she has 2 and I have 1 but none together. We have one of her boys stays here when he is not driving and one who is still waiting for his priority date to come so he can come over.
This an ugly impact to the fiancé/fiancée Visa program.
Marquez, 24, was charged with fraud and misuse of visas, permits, and other documents.
He is suspected of buying rifles used by his friend, Syed Rizwan Farook, and Farook's wife, Tashfeen Malik, in the December 2 mass shooting that left 14 people dead in the Southern California city.
He's also accused of entering a fake marriage with a member of Farook's family....
Marquez is also accused of entering into a fake marriage in November 2014 with a woman who was the sister of the wife of Farook's brother.
For doing so, he was paid $200 a month, according to the complaint.
If convicted on this charge, Marquez could face a maximum of 10 years behind bars.
