I had been with my husband for 2 years, but been married for 3 months. We are in the process of filling out his paper since he is illegal. The problem is we both stay with my mom until we can get his status change since his not able to work. My question is since we don't have anything under our name, how can we prove that our marriage is real? Can my mother write a letter stating that she is the one providing for us. Also he don't have a ssn that's why I'm not able to add him to anything such as insurance, bank acctount and ext. SoSo how can i prove that our marriage is bonafied because im trying for him to become legal so we can start our life.

Does he qualify for Deferred Action? If not, he'll have to return to his home country. If you want to send in statements that your mother has been harboring an illegal alien, that's your call, just be aware of the illegality of that.

How old is he? How long has he been here? Did he come here legally and now is staying on an expired visa, or did he come in illegally?

Disregard the above, as it is wrong.

Anyway, I assume by "illegal" you mean he entered with a visa and overstayed, since you are talking about changing his status.

Your mother can write an affidavit that you live with her; yes. USCIS understands newlyweds don't have a lot of evidence, and you can only send them what you have. There is no one piece of paper that will prove it to them, so just do the best you can. You will have a mandatory interview and they can ask you questions there about your lived together. Good luck.

As mentioned, there is a big difference between him being an illegal (having swum across the river or similar), or having come in on a visa and overstayed that visa.

In general terms, many bills will let you add a second name, so the envelope is addressed to both names. Some banks will not require SSN, shop around. What about at your work, is he listed as next of kin? Can you provide photos from throughout your relationship and the wedding? Do you have a pastor who'd write an affadavit of relationship, or maybe your doctor who has seen you together?

which is exactly why I asked if he entered illegally or is on an expired visa, since the poster didn't state it. And yes, if he did enter illegally, her mother is harboring an illegal alien, and that is in fact illegal.

wait until the poster replies with more info. you're only assuming 1 of 2 possible scenarios. I don't recall any legislation saying that it's ok to jump the border, get married, then you're perfectly legal. Marriage to a USC doesn't make you legal. There are proper procedures that must be followed, which is what fiancé and spousal visas were designed for.

Since the OP's profile states that the noncitizen spouse is from Haiti, I suspect that the spouse did not enter without inspection.

He had came to the u.s with a visa because his father who is also a u.s citizen had petition for him and his siblings but due to the fact that his father Miss their interview date his case was denied which leave me to start the process again and petition for him
