Hi all,

Some good info on here but wanted to ask a specific question regarding the need for a lawyer or not for Spousal Class paperwork?

It is expensive for a lawyer ($3000) and $2000 for just a consultant. Considering all the other costs (shipping, flights etc) and wanting to save costs and do it ourselves: Is this advisable and are there people on here who did it this way?

Can anyone advise us how they did it and how long the process took?

Thanks in advance!!!

If you have a straightforward application there is no need to hire a lawyer and/or consultant. You will be charged a great deal of money and still have to do most of the work yourself.
