What is the best way to file for a I-130 adjustment?

Answered by attorney Harun Kazmi
Immigration lawyer at Kazmi & Sakata
Hello, In theory, yes you can do this. If your fiance enters without any issues at the border, you can file for their green card here. However, they are entering the US with immigrant intent...i.e., they should have an immigrant visa since there is presumption they want to stay here, because they are married to a US citizen. You can file the for their Fiance visa now if you wish. This can take 6 to 8 months to process. There are risks of entering with the intent to stay permanently, but it can be done.

Will I have a problem re-entering the USA?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
I assume that you will be returning to the country under the visa waiver program. If you already have permission and do not have to apply again for ESTA, you would likely not have issues with your reentry. If you require permission again, however, you might not be allowed back into the US under the visa waiver program. Under such situation, you might have to apply for a visitors visa to the US at a US consulate or embassy and explain the situation of your arrest. The consular officer would then make a decision as to whether to grant the visa. Customs and Border Protection personnel would generally respect a consular decision.

How soon can visa overstay get employment authorization if married to American citizen?

Answered by attorney Harun Kazmi
Immigration lawyer at Kazmi & Sakata
Hello. If you marry a US citizen, you will get a work permit in 3 months. What type of visa did you enter with and when?  You will need a joint sponsor, if your US spouse cannot show their financially ability to sponsor you. You can get an ITIN by applying, but it does not give you the right to work. You can get a SSN after you get the work permit.
