Me and my husband went to Johor Bahru immigration recently to request for my social visa extension. We also asked how to get spouse visa but the immigration officer was very confusing.
I had read on blogs that I can only get spouse visa after 6 months of registering marriage but the immigration officer said I can get it after a month. Hmm
Thank you for responding 
Getting spouse visa takes how long?

The immigration rules forms and processes are based on State rules do that's why you see differences. I thing Selangor is 6 month wait

I was thinking of the endorsement to work. I think everyone has to wait for 6 months after registration of marriage. Did you read the various guides under their Notes section. Perhaps some people in JB have written on the website their experience
