Just curious, where does it state her/his partner is a LPR??? Is it from another post he/she wrote??

This thread seems to have taken on a life of it's own - there is no mention of the fiance(e) being a permanent resident.

Unless they are referring to Dovey's question - not the original poster.

Dovey, I would recommend you start a new thread with your questions so they don't get confused with the original questions.

The OP hasn't responded either way.

There was a post that someone else put that was asking if the spouse was LPR then what?

What if the spouse is an alien from outer space? Will his green skin color interfere with the green color of the new green card?

Just wondering where you guys are going with the O.P.'s rather simple and straight-forward question . . .

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

They won't be able to get a driver's license or work legally. They will be out of status when their I-94 expires. They can be deported with a reentry ban depending on the length of overstay. In some states, the LPR spouse can be in legal trouble for harboring an out of status alien.

You will be breaking the law.

Hi Exotica,

Yes, VISITOR to AOS is perfectly LEGAL to do! (lol...I for one have done such...see my vj timeline...)

No, it's not illegal that you came to the US and get married while you were down here for a visit.

AS LONG AS YOU CAME HERE WITHOUT PRIOR INENTION TO IMMIGRATE ON YOUR VISIT and not do this as to avoid and/or break immigration laws, then it's fine and legal to do such.

I was in the same situation before too, as I came over to visit my boyfriend (now husband), on a tourist visa (which are rare for Canadians, as Canadians generally don't need visas to visit the USA) from Canada for 2 weeks, and then ended up getting married here in the USA, and overstayed, and then filed the paperwork with immigration. And yes, I did get approved and got my green card afterwards. For more information on my situation, see my VJ timeline.

In fact, I had no clue about the immigration/visa process when I got married and afterwards and was 'stuck' in the USA...

Definitely no intention at all in my case....Just visited...got married..then realized..Uh Oh....Can I stay?

So I went to seek the advice of an immigration lawyer....

And it was the lawyer that said that I should do the Visitor to AOS route instead of the other immigrant visa routes....(no point in going back for me..)...

Definitely not a loophole here! It is legal! But yes, it does carry a lot of risk in this process!

For example, if there was a denial, it could not have been appealed (unlike the other visa routes), and would have been deported...scary....

But we took that risk anyways..and it paid off for me....Can't say that this works for everyone though...

Again, contact a lawyer if in doubt of your particular situation....Which I advise anyone to do in this and in any case...

Every situation is different...So don't pre-judge as to one way is better than another way......

As long as in the end it all works out well, then so be it...

Hope this helps too..Good luck on your journeys too..

Ant

P.S. If you of HAVE PRIOR INTENTION TO IMMIGRATE ON YOUR VISIT you're probably better off filing for:

-A K1 (fiance visa...go back to your former country, file the paperwork, get married in the USA, adjust status, get green card)

-A K3 (marriage visa...go back to your former country, get married in the former country, file paperwork, come to USA, adjust status, get green card)

-A CR-1 (marriage visa...go back your former country, get married in the former country, file paperwork, come to the USA, get green card...)

I cam to the usa as a visitor but fell in love and want to get married now! I came here january 24th and I understand we canadians are special we can stay vistors for up to 6 months unlike other country. Well I do not know what to do tho should me and my partner get married if we are in love? I am staying with him right now and legally i can be here till July 24th thats when six months is up! Im not sure what i should do? Any advice or help please?
