Cr-1 is a spousal visa, you must be married first because you must submit the marriage certificate with the petition

Marry first, then petition

Good luck

I am not sure if 10 days is enough to get married in Egypt, that is something you need to check with the local agency in charge of that process in your country. However, he will fill here in the states, so you could get married today and he can come back tomorrow and start the process. Just make sure that he has the marriage certificate along with all other documents before he leaves to avoid delays.

Good luck

sorry for bothering you really,but can u tell me does he need to bring the affidavit paper with him signed from the united states or get it from the consulate in egypt?

This one will be best answered by Egyptian U.S petitioner married to Egyptian spouse.

In India, I didn't have any restrictions and I didn't get any NOC (No Objection Certificate) from the local U.S Consulate.

hey

Am Egyptian. you can get married in 2 to 3 days....DON'T hire any attorney , when he gets here..just go to the embassy and get permission to marry ...then take it and go to the Foreign minister ( wzaret el 5aregya) then stamp it ..it will cost you 11 L.E for each paper anyways ..then go to El Tahreer building (mogama3 el tahreer) then get visa stamp..it wont take 10 minuts..then take it and go to Justice ministry (wzaret el 3adl) at 4th floor , then tell them that you wanna get married...they will ask you to buy some imprints from any Egyptian mailing office (el bareed el masry) then get them and go back to them with all the copies of your husband's passport and your id and the entery visa stamp and the residency visa stamp then Congratulations...DONT FORGET 2 WITNESSES ...then your husband can travel as he want..you can receive the marriges certs without him...after that notireize it from the US embassy and mail it to him...happy marriage inshallah :)

Salaam alaykum. There is no VISA requirement for how long the marriage should it. Your American husband-to-be could only stay for a day and get married. Lots of people only stay for a week when they get married in foreign countries. So 10 days will be fine.
