Re: permenant residence for student
Thanks for you question. There are potential visa overstay problems since you came as a visitor a while ago. However, marrying a US citizen cures your visa overstay problems. Don't forget that you can co-process your I-130 and I-485. If you have any additional questions, contact me directly.
