Is there any way for an immigrant to get legalized in the U.S. without leaving the States if he came here illegally? |
[Edit] |
Answer
No. There is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY that a person who came here illegaly can become "legal" without first leaving the states.
The only chance would be if the law is changed or an amnesty bill is passed.
Answer
I am in the process of obtaining a green card for my husband. The lady at the National Visa Center told me that I could apply for a change of status from Ins to be able to stay instead of traveling to Mexico for the interview.
Answer
Sorry to burst the person above me's bubble...but I went down this route. When you go to your interview, they will ask, "How did he enter the country?" Illegally, then they will tell you cannot change their status, and must ask for a pardon through a different consulate (like Ciudad Juarez)...which includes the I-601 hardship letter.
Answer
Never ask the NVC for advise. That is like asking a blind person for directions. Take it from me. I was told by the NVC that my wife could stay here with me while I filed for her K3 visa, and since that visa is processed outside the US, it wouldn't matter how she entered. Then at the interview, they denied her visa because my wife overstayed her visa.
Answer
People, the right way to do it (get married to an illegal immigrant) is: Get him/her a fiance/ee visa for him/her to enter the US legally from the begining; then you marry him/her. That way you avoid all this trouble.
Answer
Sorry but this is so NOT true. The immigrant can apply for political assylym even if he entered the country illegally. He will not have to leave the country unless his request for assylym is denied.
