Testimonials from Colombia

I just wanted to write and say that Rapid Visa did a superb job in processing our K-1 Visa. From the very beginning, you did a professional and extremely quick turnaround of all the required paperwork

They were always available 24/7 and always was able to give me advices online. I don't care how much you think you know about the law and process, your fiancé is likely to need some help on their end. I wasn't able to take my fiancé step by step through the process, but the staff of Rapid Visa was and did so on numerous occasions. I can now recommend them enough for anybody about to go through the K1 Fiancé Visa process. Thanks we appreciate you.

Sé que armé una petición K-1 mucho mejor con la ayuda de RapidVisa de la que tendría por mi cuenta. Nuestro resultado: recibimos nuestra aprobación inicial en 7 semanas, completamos la cita con la embajada y teníamos la visa a mano en 12 semanas. Felizmente disfrutamos de estar juntos aquí en Oregon y de planear nuestra boda para el próximo mes. Gracias RapidVisa!

After careful consideration of all the information out there, I am very happy that I chose Rapid Visa to help and guide me through my application process. I am now a Permanent Resident of the US.

The entire process took the exact time that they predicted and in my opinion, they did a fantastic job.

The staff was very helpful and demonstrated the highest level of professionalism. At times they had answers to my questions even before I asked them.

Thank you Rapid Visa and continue the good work.

Sincerely,
