Colt and Larissa shared their K-1 visa process on ’90 Day Fiancé’

Season 6 of 90 Day Fiancé introduced viewers to Colt and Larissa’s whirlwind love story. After meeting online, the couple met up in Mexico, and got engaged five days later. Colt applied for Larissa to come to the United States on a K-1 fiancé visa which required the couple to get married within the first 90 days of her arrival. 

After Larissa landed in Colt’s hometown of Las Vegas, she moved in with him and his mother Debbie. The two started their relationship with some hiccups, but ended up getting married within the requirement period for the K-1 visa. Once they were married, Colt applied for Larissa’s green card so she could become a permanent citizen.

And in this season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After, Larissa reveals that she is afraid she’ll get deported because Colt canceled her green card application.

“Colt canceled my Affidavit of Support, he canceled my green card,” Larissa says on the show. “Means that I have to find another way to stay here. I have no idea what’s going to happen to me, and I’m very scared to be arrested again and be deported forever.”

“My master plan was to come to America, fall in love, bring my kids here, and have the family that I dream of,” she added. “But the dream is fading away.”

Colt explains why he canceled Larissa’s immigration application

In a recent interview with ET, Colt talked about the new season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After and addressed Larissa’s immigration situation. He said that ultimately, after his divorce, he didn’t want to be responsible for his ex any longer. 

“I don’t care where she ends up, it could be the U.S., Mars or Brazil, I just don’t want to be responsible for her,” Colt said. “So, I did my only thing that I had to do, was cancel her affidavit of support. If she could try to get a green card or visa any way she wants, she can stay in America for the rest of her life, I don’t care. I just don’t want to be the one that has to answer or pick up the phone when she needs it.”
