Re: Married to a Visa Waiver overstay
If you were a US citizen, the answer would have been an easy yes. As it is, if you do not naturalize first, your wife would face a very serious challenge in trying to become a legal permanent resident requiring one or several waivers. Contact an immigration attorney before filing anything with USCIS or travelling abroad.
The above reply is in the nature of general information, is not legal advice and should not be relied on as such.
