You don't need to have an elaborate wedding to apply for a spousal visa.. A court wedding with few family and friends is okay. What is important is you take enough pics that shows the wedding is real.

1. Spousal visa.. She will have to file for him there to come over that is after a court wedding. And of course she will need the marriage certificate and date of birth to do that.

2. They can go for court wedding at Ikoyi registry.

3. Ofcourse they can get married without family consent. Only that they must be at least two witness present at the wedding. And it is always good they take enough pics, the couple, friends and family as well as well wishes to serve as a proof of genuine wedding should the consular doubt the genuiness of the marriage.


4. The process take minimum of 18 month or so.

5. If she does not want to come to Nigeria for them to get married, then she can file fiance or k1 visa for him. However, she must have visited him twice in Nigeria with lots of pics showing they are genuine lovers before such visa could be granted.

6. It is a must she comes to Nigeria. Unless thr guy can travel to see her on a visiting visa after wish she can file K1 visa for her. Either she or he must pay a visit.

7 No. She cannot file for spousal visa without marriage certificate.

Pls help

Your spouse?. Meaning you are married?.

You cannot get tourist visa easily and no dates are available until next year. It's also a non immigrant visa which requires you to come back.

Student visa on the other end requires process of admission into US college or university. Also non immigrant category.

Fiance visa seem to be faster than spousal in the immigrant category

It might end in tears for either or both of you.
1. You both won't be able to do proper jobs because of work permit/greencard that you both don't have.

2. Either or both of you may have to do arrange marriage to get papers which could be expensive (5k to 10k usd).

3. Both of you will have to divorce first before the arrange marriage can be successful because you will either/both need the divorced certificate at uscis or nvc

4. There is 80% chance that your woman will develop feelings for her arrangee husband and there is nothing you can do about it because the man is seen as the legally husband to her according to US database.

5. When either or both of you decided to terminate the arrangees to come together again, you might have to re-file marriage because you were both legally divorced.

6. You might have problems convincing USCIS about why you both divorced earlier, married new spouses, divorced the spouses and decided to come together again.

Its a tough one except you are ready to sacrifice your marriage.


If you will take my advice, one of you should go for studies, get job and be PR, then the person files F2A for the one in Nigeria to join him/her legally

Re: USA Spousal Visa Process/ K3 Visa by Butterflysio: 4:54pm On Jun 10, 2021
Hello guys...
I need an honest advise concerning this issue
I was approved by USCIS last month under the CR1 category, and almost after few days NVC received my Approval and created my case number
In this light , I had to start my registration for a Nigerian international passport , infact I had to buy extra charges to get it out fast .
Unfortunately for me , when the passport came out after 2weeks, there was an error on my DOB, instead of January 21, January 24 was documented , but the year is correct
Now I am in a great dilemma on what to do next, I need the passport for the next stage of my NVC documentation ASAP
What should I do
Re: USA Spousal Visa Process/ K3 Visa by Alphamalekings: 8:50pm On Jun 12, 2021
[quote author=Butterflysio post=102584824]Hello guys...
Make sure you correct that Date of Birth mistake at the NIgerian Immigration office. You have a period of 1year to do all necessary applications at NVC. I repeat don’t use the passport with the wrong age like that!

Just as Alphamalekings recommended, make sure you fix your Passport issue. It's even better you forfeit the whole immigration process and start afresh than use the wrong Passport as it will come back to hunt you in the future. The mistake you made was to delay in getting your Passport. That should have been the first thing you should have done before starting the immigration process. But that's by the way. Just see it that the error is fixed asap.
Re: USA Spousal Visa Process/ K3 Visa by Luuchyy: 5:49pm On Jul 10, 2021
Good day Everyone,
I got married in march of this year and waited till july to start my filing process because my husband joined the military in april. I have a little confusion on the address, as he has moved out of his apartment because of going to Military camp and all that. He wants me to stay at his family friend’s place as the address on the “where your spouse intends to stay”. I don’t know if this will affect us. Although he will get his apartment but once i am settled in. Has anyone been in similar situations?

Age may not necessarily matter though. It takes about a year to get approved. You may be fortunate Sri get approved within few months though.
