Hello,

I am a female on a student visa in the USA. I have been married for approximately 5 months and am just now starting the application process. I hope to get the following questions answered with this post:

1) Has anyone worked with Usa Visa Now? I bought a product from them to fill out documents and have step by step instructions, but it doesn't seem all that helpful. I wanted to know if anyone has a review?

2) With the Step by Step instructions, it does tell me everything I need, however it doesn't elaborate on my personal research that I have done, which includes Cover Letters and The Index. If anyone has any information on that at all, that would be extremely helpful.

3) Any tips on first steps.

I am 21 years old and I have been studying in the USA for a very long time. I have been in a relationship of 4 years and we have decided to take the next step. Yet, I need all the guidance I can get. Any help is appreciated!

Thank You!

Larissa
