Hello all,

 

I already read some "start here FAQ's" but I was not able to find the answer. Maybe some of you that has better knowledge can help me out here.

A woman (23 years old), US citizen wants to apply to her husband. He came with a tourist visa and it is out of status. They are married for over 1 year here in US.

What are the forms needed to apply?

Is the foreign husband currently in the US?  I assume that is what you mean.  If so, follow this guide.

 

Good Luck!

Correct, and that IS the way to do it if the initial entry was legal and only an overstay.  The foreign spouse would adjust status, not seek a visa.
