If you are married, attach your marriage certificate or marriage registration, it is not advisable to apply for the visa if your marriage took place within the last 3 months. It is suggested to apply after 4 months (or more) after getting married so that the document gains seniority. 

If your marriage certificate has been issued recently (less than 4 months, prior to this application), Immiland strongly recommends providing supporting documentation to reinforce the genuineness of your relationship and to avoid suspicion on the official when evaluating your marriage relationship due to the recent celebration of the marriage.

The elements that can be used as evidence to prove the genuineness of your marriage are any of the following:

• Shared ownership of a residential property
• Joint leases or leases in the name of both parties
• Bills for shared or individual utility bills (one old and one new) showing the same residence address, such as:
• Important documents for both showing the same address, such as:

• driving licenses
• insurance policies
• identification documents
