For marriage, there are certain conditions, and two people must meet the corresponding conditions before they can establish marriage. Long-term marriage needs the normal maintenance of both husband and wife to avoid the failure of marriage. Next, I will bring you some detailed knowledge about the process of applying for a green card for marriage, hoping to help you.

1. What are the procedures for applying for a green card for marriage?

First, apply to the US government for marriage registration (ask China to issue your unmarried or divorced certificate), and then apply for immigration (US Immigration Service) two years later, that is, a temporary green card.

Two. Documents required for foreign-related marriage registration

(a) China citizens need to hold documents.

1, my ID card and household registration certificate;

2. Proof of my name, gender, date of birth, nationality, marital status (unmarried, divorced, widowed), occupation, nature of work, and the person applying for marriage issued by the people's government at the county level where my domicile is located or the organ at or above the county level where my work unit is located.

3. Proof of my name, gender, date of birth, marital status (unmarried, divorced, widowed), occupation and the person applying for marriage issued by the people's government at or above the county level where the household registration is located.

In addition, both men and women applying for marriage are required to submit the pre-marital health examination certificate and photos of both parties issued by the hospital designated by the marriage management registration authority.

Foreigners who want to register for marriage in China need not only the above-mentioned documents, but also the relevant laws and regulations for their registration in other countries recognized by their own laws.

Three. Procedures for examination and approval of foreign-related marriage registration

(1) application

China citizens and foreigners who have complete documents and meet the "Several Provisions on Marriage Registration between Citizens and Foreigners in China" may apply for marriage registration at the foreign-related marriage management registration authority with the above documents.

(2) Review

After accepting the marriage application of the parties, the marriage registration authority shall carefully examine it. There are three main points in the review:

1, whether the parties voluntarily;

2, whether the parties have the necessary elements of marriage;

3. If both parties are foreigners, the parties concerned should also provide effective provisions for marriage registration abroad to ensure the effectiveness of marriage registration in China.

(3) Registration

After examination, the marriage management registration authority considers that the parties meet the conditions for marriage registration, and shall grant registration, and complete the registration procedures within one month and issue a marriage certificate.

China citizens and foreigners who remarry should register according to the marriage procedure.

China citizens and foreigners who apply for marriage should pay the marriage license fee and registration fee to the marriage management registration authority. I will pay the translation fee.
