Congrats! That sounds great!

Pardon me if I am intruding, but are you a same-sex couple? I was wondering if this would be an issue especially in a conservative country like the UAE.

Also, what kind of documentation did they request regarding financials? Both of us live here and I am afraid that the fact I am not living and employed in the US (as the petitioner) might be an issue.

Thanks,

F&M

Hi, the consular officer should be american and not from UAE, I can understand your fear though. By now all consulate officers should have received the proper training on how to deal with same sex couples after Section 3 of DOMA was repealed. If you want to petition your fiance though I think you need your last 3 years income tax returns. Do you work in the UAE then?
