Hi,

Finally me and my fiance decided that we gona marry in ireland since i am in Ireland and cant fly to USa for some reasons. Now we are going to marry in Oct.

i may have to go back to Pakistan ( my original country). Can we start visa process from Pakistan. we will have marriage certificate from Ireland? is that possible or am I required to stay and apply from Ireland?

You may file the paperwork while you are in Ireland listing your consulate at Pakistan

Well then marry in Ireland

There will be a question asking which consulate abroad you would like your petition to be sent to, put Pakistan

Good luck

My husband (a British citizen) and I (a USC) flew to Jamaica to get married. He returned to the UK and I to the US, and we will begin the CR-1 visa process. He will interview in London. You can get married anywhere, just make sure you get your marriage certificate. Never hurts to ask for duplicate copies (I got 8 just in case!).

[canadian_wife 1,785]

For a CR-1 visa the interview can take place in the region of your legal residence, in this situation it would be Pakistan

For a K-3 visa, the interview will take place in the area where your wedding took place, in this case, Ireland

To prevent any confusion, DO NOT file the I-129F for the K-3 visa, since Ireland will be where the K-3 visa intervew will take place

Stick with the, and only the, I130 petition

Good luck

yes I got it now. I actually dont have any status in ireland. so it will be problem for me. thats why I want to back to pakistan and apply from there. I am asylum seeker here. so they wont accept me when I dont have any ID and any status.

Nmcraford is an example for me. we can marry in ireland then I will back to pakistan and wil file spouse visa from pakistan.

The others already gave the correct answer.

Not directly what you asked for, but be sure to check into Ireland's requirement for weddings. I know when I lived there and my husband came over, there was a residency requirement of 6 weeks (I think... maybe it was 30 days) for the foreign spouse, so it would need to be a long holiday for her!

[Anwarmalik 1]

Oh I think they have changed now. they need to give 3 months notification. and if spouse is living outside of ireland then we can send our documents and she needs to be here 5 days before we are marrying. its like I have appointment for 1st of july, on that day i will give notification of marriage and then we will marry some time in oct. my fiance needs to be here 5 days before. that is what they told me on fone . I hope its correct information.

I am USC and my ex husband is also from pakistan and we married in Japan... my ex is now USC... so I know you can marry wherever you wish.
