A friend is marry an overstayed visa immigrant?
My friend is marrying this person less than 2weeks. On the year of their wedding, they will be together for exactly 2yrs. (living together less than a yr). He overstayed his visa about a yr? They're planing to directory papers for green card and permanent resident after their honeymoon. (not leaving the country). I'm concerned that he may be using her to stay here in the US. He have a job here. I'm quite certain the employer know he's forbidden. He's from Poland. He doesn't have any family here (all in Poland) I tried describing her how I felt about this situation, that I'm concerned, but when a person is contained by love, they will not hear it. I heard that once a foreigner marries a US citizen, the person will become "direct relative" so they can get citizenship faster? I'm not really sure what answer I want from this question, I just hope he's not using her to stay, capture a PR here, then divorce her. She says they are in love, and he's other nice to her. ( On the other hand, deep down, I feel something's not right). Should I basically not mention it anymore? Just wish her the best and hope all will be well?
Answers:
i judge you should just let them be
he was using her
he wouldnt steal it this far without talking to her about it
You heard wrong roughly the marriage. In fact, marrying underneath these circumstances may, in fact, make things worse.
Either means of access, if he ever had an immigrant visa, he IS in a better position than those who enter illegally as he have been vetted at one time or another. If, however, he came within on a tourist visa, he will probably be deported until the paperwork is approved which could be years.
I live in a border town and I've heard that it's more difficult to obtain automatic citizenship through marriage than it used to be.
Don't know for sure, but I know many people that hold complained about it.
two years without getting married and file a green card? he's either extremely patient, or he's actually within love with her. either way, she's unquestionably convinced he's legit, so there really isn't much you can do, even if you're right.
Yes you should say something to your friend.
Yes it is comprehensible that he is using your friend.
it is also illegal for him to do so.
He could be deported faster if they find out.
My co-worker was in a terribly similar situation. They got married, the man used her to get the status and then dumped her. After that she have to pay him support for something or rather. Your friend's fiancee sounds fishy to me.
I know someone who was dating someone trying to get citizenship as well and be denied the first time....but got it the second time. We think this person silently got married (unknown to her immediate family) and that is how he get citizenship. I always say you must listen to your gut feeling. Have you considered reporting him? Since she is your friend, I am sure this is difficult. I don't know what to suggest but I do know your gut outlook is usually correct. He is breaking the law.
well, there is not much that you can do surrounded by this situation and as you say she is in LOVE, and when in doubt DON'T as they voice............
There's probably not much you can do to make her see reason even if your instincts are right.
As for the residency, there will be issues due to the overstay. They can probably capture around that, but even if they do, the visa will be conditional until they have been married for two years. If he is using her, he will have to stick next to her for at least two years or he won't meet the conditions of his visa.
first you need to call ice an report him #2 purely because they are married it does not make it easier to get a green card they need to plan on 1-2 years apart while papers are processed
not sure if he is using her or not but yes he will become an immediate relative. He would first become a legal permanent resident and after 3 years profile for citizenship.
Ewww shes cruel!
your right they will become an immediate relative. its obvious hes using her
So what? I have two friends that minutes after meeting their topical "loves" I had my doubts. They are both now divorced. People marry the wrong people adjectives the time, people are used one way or the other all of the time. You own voiced your concerns now drop it. It is her business nobody else's.
hes gonna seize detained, then rammed by dudes!! O_O
