How can my illegal husband apply for a work visa for now until we get his green card

Samuel Joseph Zermeno
Answered by attorney Samuel Joseph Zermeno (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Zermeno Law
Hello. If you husband is staturtorily eligible for cancellation of removal he can apply for a work permit before his next court date.  If he doesn't have an attorney for his removal proceeding I highly recommend he gets one as soon as possible.  Removal proceedings are very difficult and effective representation should be sought. Please call for a free consultation, I represent clients throughout the US.

Can you tell me the requirements of marrying my UK boyfriend in Florida, so he can live here with me?

Answered by attorney Jan Joseph Bejar
Immigration lawyer at Jan Joseph Bejar A Professional Law Corporation
It  all depends basically on where your boyfriend is.  If he is in the US you can marry him here, and then the real question is where to process his green card application.  If he entered legally and you are a US citizen, then in most cases (depending on how he entered the US), he can adjust his status here and it is unnecessary for him to depart the US.  In most cases this is true even if he entered legally but is now illegally here because he overstayed.   If he entered illegally, depending on the circumstances of the case, he may need to process his case abroad (in his home country), and that can have other consequences.  It is difficult to give you a specific way to proceed without having more information, but if you tell me how he entered the US, I might be able to tell you more specifically.   When you ask whether you need to have your own place, that is a little vague.  If you share a home with roommates (or even your parents) and your husband will be joining you, that is acceptable, but you do need to show that the relationship is real.   In terms of your income, there is a requirement that you file an affidavit of support showing that you can support him if he should become a public charge, the amount you need to show will depend ont he number of dependents you have.  If he is adjusting status in the US, he should be able to get permission to work here within 90 days of filing the application.  I hope this helps you.
