Bankruptcy and Debt 3 views 4 answers
I violated my F1 status by working without authorization but continued going to school thinking that as long as I go full time school my F1 status is fine. I filed for asylum, it got denied by the asylum officer, and he said that since i worked without authorization my case will be transferred to immigration judge. My boyfriend in the meantime proposed to me and wants to marry me. Will I get my green card if i marry him? what will happen to my asylum if i marry him? What happens if I marry him but my asylum is rejected and I file through my husband? please help me

The answer to your question will not change by re-posting it. The answers to your question require an attorney to analyze your facts and the law. That cannot happen here. Good luck.

I agree with my colleague. Getting a green card through a spouse is the best way. Getting a green card through asylum is hard. You should consult an immigration attorney who can analyze your facts and recommend a solution.

I agree with both of my colleagues. You need to consult with an immigration attorney to discuss the specific facts of your case to see what your best options are. Good luck.

everyone has posted solid advice for you to consider. Marriage is a way to get your status in the US, but based upon your previous immigration filings it will not be a walk in the park on a sunny day in june. The burden will be, as in all cases, upon you and future spouse to prove bona fides of the relationship and that it was not entered into only to circumvent immigration violations.
