I would like to thank Rapid Visa for the Tremendous courteous Help in their guidance, and precise preparations of bringing my fiancé to the USA. I never had any doubts about their expertise. All of the Representatives were very understanding, and truly helpful in making my challenge of preparing the K-1 fiancé visa error free. The complete package was done a lot earlier then I anticipated. Thank You Rapid visa for the fine job you have done to make this happen. Las Vegas will never be the same, after all, we finally got married on February 15th, 2013. Sincerely from both of us.
