Legal Question in Immigration Law in Wisconsin

Re: illegal immagrant

A marriage in Mexico is a legal marriage; therefore, in order for her to remarry, she must obtain a divorce (or annulment). If he is a U.S. citizen, and she is a battered spouse, there is a remedy for her and she may be able to obtain her residency without having to remarry a U.S. citizen. I would need more facts and details on the case. She should consult with a good immigration lawyer. good luck.

Re: illegal immagrant

Although married in Mexico, yes, she is still married and must get a divorce before marrying you. If the wife entered without inspection, meaning without a visa [visitor's, student, etc.], than she cannot adjust status from within the USA even if she marries a United States citizen. However, there are exemptions available under current immigration laws [s.245(i)] provided she meets certain criteria. Please consult with a immigration attorney before pursuing this matter.

Hello. Your marriage is definitely valid in the U.S. I agree with the other attorneys - she may or may not be able to gain status through her marriage to a United States citizen. The process by which she could gain status would depend on the facts of her case.
