I am getting married August 13, when should I apply for my spousal Visa?
We realized we got ourselves into a bit of a tricky situation, allow me to explain:
We are getting married August 13. August 14, we have a flight from Detroit to New York for a 1 week Honeymoon. We were planning on sending all our documents and proof of relationship that morning, overnight/same day to Chicago. Only theres a problem: we didnt realize that they needed BOTH of our passports. Does anyone know if she can send in a birth certificate instead of her passport? Will this delay things for the visa?
Anyway, the plan is for us to spend a week together in NYC. She will go home after a week, I will stay in Brooklyn with my sister for an extra week to make room for delays. My parents will receive the (hopefully) accepted Visa and overnight it to New York.
Anyway, with this biometric finger scan crap now, I want to get it done and overwith asap. I just need to know when I should take care of my application online.
Cheers for any advice!
