Howdy, so Im American, my wife is Japanese. Were dealing with the COE bs at the moment and were kind of concerned about getting rejected at this stage since its like 1 to 3 months before a decision is made.
Main thing we're worried about is if they think our relationship has been going on long enough. We dated for 6 months before getting married in the US so by the time we have all the stuff ready to submit it will be like 8 months of total relationship time. Is this enough?
Second, most of the paperwork for financials is for the Japanese spouse to give, would me sending my bank statement help in the process?
Lastly, any tips or dos and do nots would be appreciated. Thank you.
