Can I marry during my 60 days grace period?

Lynne Rogers Feldman
Answered by attorney Lynne Rogers Feldman
Immigration lawyer at Feldman Feldman Associates, PC
First we need to analyze the J-1 and determine if you are subject to the two-year requirement and if yes then whether you can obtain a Non Objection letter from your home country or other more difficult waiver. Otherwise your eligibility to remain ends with the end of the 60 day grace period unless you qualify for another non immigrant visa soon (go back to school or other options). You can marry but won?t be able to get any benefits from the marriage such as the eligibility to remain here while the I-485 is pending unless the J is cleared up or the two year period is spent in your home country.

You need to apply for a travel document from USCIS or else you may not be allowed back into the United States. You should speak to an Immigration Attorney as certain travel may jeopardize your asylum status.
