Hi, I am on J1 visa and am planning to get married to a green card holder.it is going to be 4 years in April since he got his green card. Should I wait for him to get his citizenship and then marry him or it does not matter for me.and how long do I have to wait for him to apply for my green card. And can he apply for it together with his citizenship
Thanks!

Maintain your status until he becomes naturalized, then get married and file for adjustment of status.

I have been here for 13 years and I have 2 kids am I eligible for a green card?

My husband has been in the process of filing for years through his father in law and has paid all fines necessary. About two years ago he was scheduled an appointment to meet with immigration and in that appointment he was asked about his criminal background and failed to tell the true and now is awaiting for court to meet with the judge. I am a U.S citizen and we have been together for ten years is there a way for me to file or he has to wait for court.

Hi, My spouse's L2 petition which was applied on Aug 2012 was pending for long time with USCIS and before we get a decision he travelled out of the country and came back with valid L2 Visa with I94 up to 2015. Now after he returned back we got a denial notice from USCIS for his previous L2 petition.
Is there any issue with his status?

Thanks.

I was living in the U.S. illegally for some years, I dated someone for about eight months and we planned to get married but we thought it would be easier if I return to my country (Trinidad) so I did in 2008 and we got married but before he could petition for me he died in a vehicular accident. I went to the U.S. embassy with his death certificate to get permission to go to his funeral but upon learning about my illegal stay in America they denied my application and placed a ten (10) ten year restriction on me entering the U.S. I also have a minor child who is an American citizen by birth and I want to give her the life that she rightfully deserve. My daughter is not related to my deceased husband. I would like to know if there is anything I can do or is it too late for me to be able to live in America legally.

I am an american and my child was born in another country she is 12 yrs old and has a temp visa and is comiong to live with me , my ques is how long does it take for her to get permanent status and there is any any special benefits in this case since I am a us soldier

Hi there, I was a green card holder but then I got sick (Tuberculosis) so I went back to my country without any re-entry permit because I didn't know that I need to file one before because I was not aware and I was still young that time..

Now, I'm planning to go back and I need to file a SB-1 form(returning visa) and I needed to get some supporting documents like date of travel (tickets, stamps, passports), proof of ties/social ties (my dad is a US citizen) and also I stay with my mom now so if I will go back to the us my mom will be left alone (it's pretty hard for me)...

My questions is does having a Tuberculosis is under getting a medical incapacitation?

Because I read this one:

*Proof that your protracted stay outside of the U.S. was for reasons beyond your control (Examples: medical incapacitation, employment with a U.S. company, accompanying a U.S. citizen spouse, etc.) (http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_1333.html)

Hoping for a helpful answer... Thanks!

My mom submitted the I-130 form dec 2007. It got approved and is now sent to the NVC for visa processing. They are now asking for a $230 visa processing fee. My question is should I pay the $230 or can I just file I-485 as well as I-485 supplement A and submit it to USCIS?

Hello. I was arrested for retail theft on 12/30/10. Went to jail overnight and released. Went to court and plead no contest. Paid civil and criminal fines... Got record expunged. Applied for my citizenship 7/29/13. Just did fingerprints on 8/29/13. With my application, I stated what happened and attached supporting evidence of record and expungement. I am so nervous as to what will happen. That was my one and only crime. I reside in Pennsylvania and have had my green card since 2006. I've been in this country since childhood and other than this one mistake, Ive been a positive individual with my Masters degree. Any advice?

Hi I have a question concerning DACA I'm willing to meet with one of your attorneys about my issue.
I fall within most of the criteria that's required for DACA BUT one and that is the fact that I came to the US in 2008 instead of June 15 2007 as asked as one of the criteria for acceptance. Is there anyway I could provide proof that I was physically here in the US as of June 2007 even tough I came to the US in 2008 with inspections throe the airport? (maybe I could say I came w/out inspection during 2007 and left, than came back in 2008?) God bless

No... he was deported... that means he now has a 10 year ban on reentry... so he goes and breaks the law again, well that ten year clock isn't ticking and may become permanent... and you think you can fix it by getting married? Well it doesn't work that way.

You can move to his native country if being together is so important. Eventually it might be possible to get a legal reentry if he leaves before he is caught again.

Marriage doesn't bestow any automatic "Rights" to a green card. That's a very common misconception.
