Hello VJ friends,

I noticed that either with DS-230 or before immigration visa interview, one needs to submit marriage certificate. My mother-in-law does not have marriage certificate and she is a widow now so she can not register a marriage. In this case, what does she need to submit instead of marriage certificate? death certificate of my father-in-law?

Following link has instructions about marriage certificate. It does not say anything about the case where one of the spouse has passed away. Just thought to pass this link to you if that helps even a bit :) I don't have much to add besides this.

Check this section: "My marriage was never registered. What do I do?"
