I saw in the JPN ROM FlowChart for Non-muslim, applicant need to reside at the district of marriage for 7+1 days before can submit application to the NRD office.

My GF and I both have Penang addressed IC, so we will return to Penang to submit application. But now we are both in KL and do we need to take 8 days leave to just stay in Penang and then only can submit the form?

Can anyone share how does the 7+1 days requirement works? I plan to take 3 days leave to go back Penang, submit form and go back to KL continue work...
