just_asking Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Hi Guys... Thanks in advance.. My Girl friend is visiting here for a conference and would stay for a month. During her visit we would like to get marry. we preferably wanted to get marry only on papers as we want to keep it ourselves until we get marry in india. i wanted to use the opportunity of her visit and get married, so she can attend h4 visa interview on her return and I can apply for ead immediately while she is still in india. question: can a travel visa holder can get marry ? is there a minimum number of days stay required if getting married in NY. we can move to other state to marry if it is easier. how many witness do we need and is there a visa status restriction for the witness persons.

User099 Posted February 26, 2020 Report Share Posted February 26, 2020 Its better to talk to an attorney with all that you are planning on doing. One thing I will say is that you can't file for her EAD if she is in India. Quote Link to comment
cap-gap Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 Even though they don’t have mind reading machines, it is illegal to enter with a different/additional intentions than the visa class..they typically grill on marriage circumstances and wedding ceremony during h4 visa interview..so you are begging for extra and unnecessary scrutiny..
