Hi- when my fiance went through JFK today the immigration lady told him he must be in the country 24 hours before getting married. we are thinking about going to the clerks office tomorrow to get a marriage license so we can get him on my insurance straightaway.

Do he need to be here a full 24 hours before we get married? has anyone done this and had trouble?
