Can my husband get a passport?

Answered by attorney Marie Andree Michaud (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Marie Michaud, Attorney At Law
Is your husband LPR (Legal Permanent Resident)? You are absolutely right. Your husband did his time and no court paper says he should not get out of the US. Mexico will probably let him in. This is not the problem. The problem is his record. If he goes outside the US, and then returns home, the Immigration official at the door wil scan his green card and will most ikely check his criminal records. This will trigger big problems. ICE will most likely issue an NTA (Notice To Appear) and place your husband in Removal (fancy word for deportation) proceedings. I would definitely that a LPR with such records does not travel outside the US with intent to eventually return to the US. If your husband is already an American citizen, he will not have problem upon his return to the US. Whether Mexico will accept him is outside my field of expertise (I am licensed in the US, practice US law, and do not know Mexican laws).

Do I still have to submit an explanation why I'm not filling one out as a joined sponsor?

No, you MUST file an I-864 because you are the petitioner. It does not matter that you have no income - that's why you have a joint sponsor filing an I-864 with you; but if you don't submit your own I-864, your case will be denied.

Can my boyfriend sponsor my move to the US from UK?

Answered by attorney Richard Stephan Kolomejec (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Richard S. Kolomejec
You could enter the US as a visitor on the visa waiver (ESTA). Then should he propose marriage after your entry, you could then marry, stay and apply for the green card. You should wait a month or two after your entry before getting married. The entire green card process only takes 3 months from start to finish if done correctly.
