Hello!
I lived in Costa Rica this year for 6 months and have met the man I am planning on marrying. Our plan is to live in Costa Rica however I would like my family and friends to meet him before we marry.
I was in contact with a lawyer (very quickly over the phone) of a friends family. She told me that I had no chance to get him here as he's a signle male from Costa Rica and that she wouldn't even waste my time in applying.
Is there anyone out there who has dealt with Costa Rica or Nicaragua???
We are going to go ahead and apply next month and from research I know some of the following tips;
- don't apply for a full 6 months
- was thinking of sending the invitation letter from my brother rather than me so that it's not an obvious "love" request.
- he has children- will this make a difference for his proving that he will return?
- he has property however it's not in his name. Would it be worth it to change this before applying?
Really any advice would be helpful. This will be our first time applying for a visa and I need as much help as possible. Anything! Him coming here to meet my family is so important!
Thank you in advance for ANY information!
