Couples Match for 2019

[XavierCharles]

Hi all..... was just hoping if anyone could give me a bit of advice/pointers regarding applying for couples match. Is there anything in particular I should be aware of, programs to apply to or those to avoid? Is the likelihood for matching the same or at least similar for couples and individuals?

A little bit of background. Partner and I are both UK medical graduates from one of the best medical schools here, and we're intending to apply for Match this year but obviously don't want to end up a million miles away from each other.

Visa requirements: Partner is US IMG (no visa requirements) and I am a British citizen (would need a visa)
Step 1: Him (230), Me (244)
Step 2 CS: Both passed first attempt
Step 2 CK: Taken awaiting scores
Letter of Recommendations: 2 each from US and 2 more from UK
Year of graduation: 2015
Additional degrees and research: both graduated with first class

I'm not sure of anything else to include to get the best advice.... any thoughts?

Thank you!!!
