I have another question about the marriage license. I looked at the applications again and it shows that Applicant A and Applicant B are supposed to list their "CURRENT LEGAL RESIDENCE."

Now this is fine for my fiance - he can just put his current address - but what should I put? I guess most of you might just put the address of your fiance or something but we won't be living together until after we're married... so I won't really have a legal residence yet! wacko.gif And besides that, we'll either get the license beforehand, so I can come up the day we get married, or if I come up a few days before we get married, I'll be staying at a friend's house. But my residence will no longer be my home address in Canada, nor will it be my fiance's address (yet) and nor will it really be my friend's house... besides, I'll only be there for 3 days *confused* blush.gif

You answered your question yourself, I believe. At the time that you fill out the application, where is your legal residence? This would probably be Canada. I'm quite confident that you would be fine stating either address, though.

I put my legal address as Lorry's as that's where we'd be living after marriage

I'll most likely already have left Canada by the time we apply for it, unless I come just for the license and return to Canada a few days before the marriage... which isn't likely. My 'current' residence would then not be Canada.

oh.. are you staying with someone else then til *the wedding night*?

(I'd still put your fiance's)
misa
Put your fiance's.
Melyssa
Thanks! I guess that would make the most sense.

Hey melyssa,

put your fiancees address. Especially once you apply for AOS, you have to be living together.

If you're filing for a K-1, once you activate the visa, you have to stay in the U.S., generally. So once you're here and get the marriage license, you'll be staying here. C. and I put my address as his address. I don't think the marriage license office really cares.
