What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? I am from Missouri and my boyfriend and I are wanting to get married. He is from Turkey and is not a resident of the US. He has been here before on a J1 visa but we are wanting to get married when he comes in November to visit my family. Is this legal to get married to a foreigner in Missouri? And what are the steps that we need to take to make it a valid marriage? He is not wanting to stay here at first. He will stay until Jan. and then he has to go back to finish his final exams at school. I will go visit him in March and we are hoping to change his visa status there in Turkey at the embassy. Is this possible? I know there are many questions here.. if anyone can help with information it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
