Legal Question in Immigration Law in California
I recently married my husband who is in the process of his green card. I have been in the US for 9 years, overstaying my VW visa, I still have my arrival record, is it possible for him to apply for a green card or visa for me? We are both UK citizens. He is here on an H1B visa

If your husband applied for you to obtain a green card once he is a lawful permanent resident, you would still have to to wait about seven or more year depending on what your priority date is. Since you have overstayed your visa, you are not eligible to adjust status (apply for a green card while in the U.S.) until your priority date becomes current or your husband becomes a U.S. Citizen. You should discuss the facts of your immigration history with an attorney before proceeding with any applications for immigration benefits. If you would like to discuss this matter further, please feel free to contact me at 415-273-9123 or [email protected].
