Can my U.S. citizen husband apply for an Immigrant visa for me if he is in prison and on death row?

Answered by attorney Bruce A. Coane (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Coane & Associates, PLLC
Assuming the marriage has been consummated, their is no law prohibiting a death row inmate from filing a visa petition. That's not to say it would be approved, but he certainly can file.

How can one file for residency if one is an illegal immigrant?

Answered by attorney David Nabow Soloway
Immigration lawyer at Kennedy, Nalepa & Soloway, P.C.
Significantly more information is needed in order to answer your questions. If, for example, you entered the U.S. lawfully and with inspection, but then overstayed your initial visa or otherwise violated its terms, you still may be able to adjust status in the U.S. as the spouse of a U.S. citizen. There really is no substitute for having an immigration attorney learn all of the relevant information about you, your immigration-related history, your spouse and your marriage in order to advise you about eligibilities, options and strategies. Some immigration law firms, including mine, offer legal services on a "flat fee" basis so that a client will know the total expense from the very beginning, and a few immigration law firms, including mine, offer an initial consultation free of charge.

How can I bring my future wife to US?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
It may be possible for you to apply for your fiancé or under a K-1 visa. That usually requires that the couple have met at least once within the past two years. However, it is possible that U.S.C.I.S. could waive the requirement based upon your explanation. The application form is the I-129F and requires biographic data sheets from both of you along with passport type photos, evidence of your bona fide relationship and promise to marry within 90 days after her entry into the States. Dependent upon your present income, you may or may not have to obtain a financial cosponsor to have your fiancée enter the country. In addition, you should work to make your child support payments current as the avoidance of child support may ultimately bring you trouble with the law.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
