Getting married after the H1B was filed?

Question

Hi,

I recently accepted a job offer from a US based Company. The company will begin the H1B visa petition this coming April 2007. At the time of filing (April 2007) my civil status is still single, however i am getting married on May 2007. Now my question is, what are the necessary steps needed for my wife in order for us to go to the US together? Assuming that my H1B visa is approved by october 2007.

Hope anyone can shed light into this inquiry. Thanks.

Answer 1

Please contact the State Department and ask them to change your marriage status..If necessary (and it doesn't

hurt) Get your wife a passsport (Some Countries have spots in their passports for spouses to be registered..if yours

doesn't, get one for her)

Answer 2

i tried to check on your question ; but ? you forgot to mention both of your origin? which country are you both from ?

please answer if you wish , i will come back to read you :-)

ps: you need to get back in touch with your employer as soon as possible in order to have your spouse paper work started .......

yes , your wife will have to have papers done for her admission to the US with you .....

i could not find the exact answer for your wife , but do get in touch with your imployer , as to change your status from  single , to married ..it may be delayed some ? ......

but if you want to go together .......:-)
