Legal Question in Immigration Law in Tennessee

Changing B1/B2 Status After Marriage to US Citizen

I am a US citizen who is marrying a man from India, here on a B1/B2 Visa. He has stayed approximately 2 months past his approved time on his Visa. We are planning to marry in 2 months. I am scared that any requests to change his Visa will be denied since he stayed longer than approved. What challenges will we face in converting his Visa after marriage, and where should we start? Is it probable that he will be sent back to India?

Though I am in Los Angeles, Immigration falls under federal law so I can reprsent you in this matter. No you will not have any problem...your husband will be asking for adjustment of status ..his overstaying will not be a problem. But sooner you can start the paper work would be better.
