Here is the situation (I am traveling to india for marriage while on H1B):
- Court marriage - 10th Dec (will get marriage certificate on 11th Dec)
- Marriage ceremony with rituals, etc. (18th Dec)
- My status H1B since Oct 2014, so i have to do h1b stamping while in india (I have 1month leave from work in Dec)
- Need to get wifey’s H4 visa interview done (I was thinking we can go together i.e. my h1b stamping and her h4 visa) & that we come together to US
question?
-
I think i have to fill 2 ds160 forms for me and fiance. Can I fill them right now (in US - november) and submit them witout any issues? Is there anything I should be careful about?
-
The forms have these columns:
i) Are you single/married?
ii) Spouse name, etc
Since i am not yet married (but will be when i am attending interview in december). What should i fill for these columns? -
Is it safe to submit the form with MARRIED details before my marriage in Dec so that I can book a visa interview date and secure a slot?
-
When should I submit both ds 160 forms and pay the visa fees? After 10th Dec (when i am legally married), or before is fine?
-
Can I book a visa interview date for both of us now ie. while in US before marriage? (will it be a safe option?)
-
Is it safe to got together for hqb and h4 visa stamping or should i get my h1b stamping done first?
