Question 10

Question: I am US citizen and recently married an illegal immigrant from Mexico, he did not enter with a visa. We have a 18 month old daughter and I have two other kids that he helps support. When we apply for a greencard through marriage will he have to go back to Mexico or are there any exceptions? From: Juliana Favela, Texas 06/04/2008 Response: He will have to go, if no one filed a petition for him or his parents when he was under 21 and prior to April 30, 2001. But he may or may not be eligible to apply at the consular level. Therefore, I recommend you come and see us for a free consultation. We have free consultation for the first visit to evaluate your case. Please call and make an appointment to see me. Be advised that no legal advise will be given or legal questions answered. For legal advise or legal questions you should check in advance for the consultation fee.
