Marrying Overstay who use fake SS Number

[oranak 0]

My husband who is overstaying here in the US, is working with fake social security number but with real name. Will this cause a problem when I petition him? I'm a US citizen. Please help and let me know

Thank you!

Yes I believe so, you might want to get a lawyer. I have friends that have been married for years and they've petitioned for him to have his residency and he hasn't received it yet. He overstayed and worked illegally, he's here in the US still but does not have his residency yet and they have a lawyer.

Thanks. I dont know if this will help but he has three names, on fake social security number only has his two names. Will that make any difference?

When he gets his PR and apply for social he well inform them

that he worked in another social£, they after a while will combine

his credits, in the meantime its not a good idea getting caught

working without permission, and on a fraud card. Immigration is complex

If it's fake as in a made up number, not an actual number assigned to someone else, he should be fine.

Working illegally and overstay are forgiven to spouses of USCs.

Should he declare this during interview? What if they asked him if he worked illegally here in the US? What should he say?

I apologize for all the questions, such a newbiew

Yes. Also put it on the forms. Do not ever, ever, ever lie to USCIS.

Thank you! And noted.

Where did he get the SSN? Is it the SSN of a US Citizen? Did he claim to be a US Citizen?

Plain old vanilla illegal work is forgiven for spouses of US Citizens who adjust in country, but identity theft, impersonating a US Citizen, and fraud, are not.

You must disclose it or you could be charged with material misrepresentation as well, which will lead to a lifetime ban in the US.

Depends on whether he claimed he was a U.S. Citizen on the I-9 employment eligibility form. He needs an immigration lawyer.

Details matter, frud claiming to somebody else sounds no the case, claiming to be a USC would be a bigger issue. Very big.

Must be unusual as most people in this situation adjust.

If it is fake and not stolen then it will require some work but it is doable for him to get a green card.

If it is stolen then he is in a whole nother world of problems.

[zuluweta 250]

Is the work the kind of work that requires e-verify? If so, I'm curious to know how it passed e-verify.

As stated above, if he lied on an I-9 claiming to be a US citizen when he wasn't, then that's a false claim of US citizenship for which he would receive a lifetime bar from the US and which cannot be waived.
