Q: Does being eligible for a ten year ban from overstaying reduce the likelihood of you getting marriage certificate
My girlfriends 18 and has over stayed her visa. She has to get married before she turns 19 or she'll be eligible for the 10 year ban. Her birthday is in 2 months and i plan on marrying her before i go to bootcamp. The thing is i dont have a timestable when i going to bootcamp. And i dont want to marry her in 2 months because i'll still be in my parents house at that time. if we dont get married in 2 months and shes eligible for the 10 year ban will we still be able to get married at a later date?
A: Talk to a knowledgeable immigration attorney. She has quite a few options available other than a hasty marriage. Also, the bar is not triggered until after she departs the US.
