Hi everyone!

I have a question that I need some expert advice.I understand that someone having an approved I-140 petition (EB-3 visa) can bring their spouse (E34) to the U.S.

But how does the dependent spouse get this visa? Is it at the beneficiary's interview (EB-3)? Does the dependent spouse (E34) need to apply? And if so, how?

I browsed USCIS site, but was only able to find this:

Family of EB-3 Visa Holders

Your spouse may be admitted to the United States in E34 (spouse of a “skilled worker” or “professional”) or EW4 (spouse of an “other worker”).

Any help regarding this would greatly be appreciated. Thanks so much! :thumbs:

? They go to the Consulate and apply.

An approved Eb3 applicant with a current PD for processing can have an interview with his/her spouse together at the consular office. Like you, she must also fill out required application forms, obtain required civil documents, pay required fees and undergo medical examinations. The spouse and children (under 21 years of age) are derivatives of the Eb3 applicant .... thus receive the same visa under this category, since its an automatic LPR status upon entering the US.
