Green Card Through Marriage:
Obtain Legal Status Through Your Spouse
The United States allows their citizens and permanent residents to bring foreign direct relatives to the country or provide legal status to those already in the US. The immigration benefit encourages family reunification through legal mechanisms.
Before a Green Card through marriage is approved, immigration authorities examine these applications closely to make sure they are legitimate marriages. In addition to all requirements and paperwork, applicants attend an interview with an immigration agent. This step is extremely important to avoid a fraud.
You are also eligible to apply for a green card through marriage if you are engaged to a US citizen and will get married within the first 90 days after entering the country. We strongly suggest you talk to an experienced lawyer before submitting an application, so you make sure to comply with all requirements and avoid any delays.

- To prove yours is a legitimate marriage, you may sent affidavits from friends, family members and religious leaders to immigration authorities.
- If immigration determines you are trying to commit fraud with a fake marriage, you may be banned from making future permanent residence applications.

As an illegal immigrant, I hired Alice Antonovsky to help me fix my migratory situation. I had followed some bad advice in the past and really wanted to come clean with immigration authorities. Ms. Antonovsky was very helpful and helped me understand there was still a chance for my family to stay together. Thank you!

I escaped a violent past from a very unstable family a few years ago. Coming to the United States was my survival option. Being here, I met people who helped me out in different ways. They advised me to get a professional assessment on my immigration situation. Luckily, I went to Alice for help and she did not disappoint. I can absolutely recommend her legal services.
