Couple match question

[Ibrahim...]

Hi

My wife and I are willing to apply for couple match this year, both of us have an average application in comparing it to other applicants.

My wife will be applying for pediatric and I will apply for psychiatry, and both of US are FMG/IMG so will need a visa.

Any couple here matched that can help us, especially if they are FMG/IMG?

We need to know do FMG/IMG match in couple match or they just don’t apply?

Thanks,

Start by applying broadly to programs that are IMG friendly and in places that have lots of both kinds of program. Then see how many interviews you both get. You don't have to tell programs that you're in the couples match in order to actually do the couples match.

Once you get a good idea of how many interview you have in overlapping sites/cities, you'll have a better idea of whether a couples, or individual matches will be better for you.
