Green card issued in 4 weeks for an illegal. Im angry

[Martin + Amie 0]

Dont know if any of you are watching so cal news at all and the illegal immigrant worker situation, the revolt and what have you. Spoke to a mexican friend of mine who had come to the US on a tourist visa with his family and never went back, worked illegally for god knows how long, applied for a green card and a got a 10 year one within about a month he said. This makes me so angry knowing i have a six month wait for a f****** fiance visa, then god knows how long to AOS.

Sorry,

I needed to let it out.

Sorry, I don't buy it..........What kind of Green card? Did he get it at a stationary store?

I think he came over and stayed then had a baby in the states, there is law in california that says if your child is born in the state the family can stay.

[kaydee457 13]

Perhaps. Anythings possible in California <grin>....

However, I think the U.S. Goverment issues Greencards.....

Not at all. That was changed (?) 20+ years ago.

California can write whatever laws it likes, but immigration law is a Federal manner and supercedes it.

Anyway, dude was pulling your chain, telling the story wrong, or you heard it wrong.

Don't get mad, get even by getting to live with your gal worry-free.

I think this person was pulling your leg. My ex was a Mexican that ended up qualifying for the deal the government offered about 15 or 20 years ago and I can guarentee you that it wasn't done in a month and it isn't going to get done in a month now. If he notified the USCIS they would have deported him! One thing that might have saved him is that he was married to a U.S. citizen but still, the card isn't going to be issued in a month. My two cents

yes, very far fetched and unusal...i think he was pulling your chain

[arwensun1965 0]

I think you must of misheard him..4 weeks??? more like 4 months and even then very unlikely, this man was pulling your chain and you fell in lol...don't worry about that, this process is stressfull enough without added bits.

I agree with you, the whole process totally sucks and its always the people that do it the right way that have to pay!

I just dont understand it, its not like i am coming from a third world country and seeking asylum, the process is long and stupid and only filters the genuine people and not those who do it the wrong way. I mean Im from one of the financial capitals of the world and part of one of the worlds strongest past empire, yet i have to wait six months while millions of illegals now flood the borders and get to stay whilst filing for their papers. Its not fair.

PS: He may have been pulling my leg, but the facts still remain, i have known him for a year, and he is illegal (I have my sources) and he has been in the US for 8 years. So something wrong is happening their but i dont know what.
