Hello everyone.I just needed help from all of you who have already applied for a family reunification visa here.Confuse and needed some suggestions.
My husband and I has just been married last month and we're planning to apply for a visa.The thing is my passport is expiring February next year.Do you suggest me renewing my passport first and changing my last name into his before applying so
I can use my husband's name?Or should I apply now with my expiring passport with still my maiden name on it?
Your reply would be much appreciated.

Thank you

fornight

Your name and birth dates in your family unification visa application MUST MATCH with your passport.
