Green card if DACA is taken away?

Business 2 views 4 answers
If Donald Trump reverses Obamas Executive Action, DACA.... Is there any other alternative to work? If he decides to deport me, and I am put in removal proceedings... Am I able to marry my girlfriend of 5 years to obtain my greencard?

Legal ways to obtain green card (through marriage to a US citizen or permanent resident) - whether you call them "alternatives" (to DACA) or not - have been available and will remain available in the future until/unless the Congress changes the law. The exact process for you depends on the exact facts in your case that you didn't elaborate. I'd been interested in knowing how you came to the US (with a visa or without inspection), whether you have left the US before (and reentered), whether you obtained advance parole through DACA, etc.

If she is a US citizen and you entered the US lawfully, she can sponsor you and you can adjust your status without leaving the US. Please see https://www.attorneyqna.com/legal-guides/ugc/green-cards-through-marriage
