Hello everyone, is it possible to have any type of help and guide ness regards to what is needed in documentation for applying for visa? What is the process to follow when a USA citizen located in Greece and married to a Greek want to relocate to USA and get a visa for the husband for living permanent in US? Thanking you in advance , my Best , Dimitra
