Legal Question in Immigration Law in New York

Re: chance to have a green card

From the details you have provided it seems that you might be able to apply for a green card based on your marriage to a U.S. Citizen. There are certain proceedures to apply and there are many important factors to consider and address. You might want to consult a lawyer in order to do everything right.

Re: chance to have a green card

Since you entered the country with inspection and have married a US citizen, you do potentially have a chance at a green card. However, there are various risks involved in navigating the process and as such I highly recommend that you seek the assistance of an immigration lawyer. Please contact me if you'd like more information.

Re: chance to have a green card

Since you entered the U.S. legally and are married to a U.S. citizen, you are eligible to adjust status to that of a permanent resident.

I strongly recommend that you consult with immigration counsel to assist you with the administrative process. We have substantial experience with this type of marriage-based case and regularly represent individuals who reside in New York.
