Applying for J2 visa
Hi there,
My wife is from Spain, currently working in the US on a J1. I wish to join her--this is allowed by her sponsor--and I'm looking for advice on the interview/application process when I go to the US embassy in London. From what I understand, to work I would need employment authorisation. I haven't decided whether I will be looking for work, but I'm not sure what to say in regards to that. Anything I should be weary of or need to consider? What should I expect to be asked? Thanks! |

Thank you very much!
I am currently visiting her on a visa waiver and we got married here in the US on this visit. Do I need to register the marriage with the UK embassy over here or anything like that before I go back? |

It wouldn't matter even if her sponsor didn't allow it... US immigration allows it - and that's what's important.

You don't have to say anything about it... the US government doesn't care if you work or not.

But he needs the DS-2019 form from the sponsor and how will he obtain that if the sponsor isn't cooperating?
If a J-2 has an expired EAD and applies for a new visa stamp, may this be a problem during the visa interview? Do I need proof that I stopped working until I'll get the new EAD? Does the US consulate see EAD status? Ian |
