  • Filling Spouse DS160 before Marriage

    Hi,
    I am working in US on L1B visa and will be getting married on June 2nd in India.
    I am planning to bring my wife here on L2. For that, I have already filled/submitted Ds160 form for her with marital status as “married” and scheduled interview for 8th June.
    I also need to get my visa re-stamped and going to India in April for re-stamping my L1 visa. I have scheduled my visa interview for April 3rd. I completed my DS160 with marital status as “single”.
    Since dependent L2 visa application has reference of my visa petition number -
    My Question is
    1. Will there be any concerns from Visa officer, during my visa interview about my wife-to-be visa appointment.
    2. During my visa interview, Will my wife-to-be DS160 form or visa application pop up and visa officer has concern about my marital status.

    Please help guys.

    1. No.
    2. I don't think so.

    Do ensure she carries the marriage certificate and marriage photos along with your L1 documents.

    This is my opinion not legal advice.

      Hi raghvi,

      Thanks for your prompt reply.
      yes. We will make sure about complete documents.

      I am worried about, In case visa officer sees my petition number linked to her appointment and questions about my marital status.
      What should i prepare as an explanation in this scenario.

        Simple, on the day of your interview you were single. On the day of your spouse interview she was married. DS-160 is as of date of interview.

        This is my opinion not legal advice.
