A: You and your fiance(e) should consult with a competent immigration attorney to discuss the specific facts of your prospective case. Even assuming the bona fide nature of your relationship, additional facts are needed to offer an opinion, which for this particular type of case should be given in the privacy of an office. Speaking generally, however, for one to be eligible for adjustment of status through a marriage-based immigration case, the beneficiary must have been inspected and admitted or paroled into the United States. Assuming that your prospective spouse was initially inspected and admitted, but overstayed, generally overstay can only be "forgiven" and adjustment possible when being done in the context of an "immediate relative" case. For purposes of U.S. immigration law, the spouse of a U.S. legal permanent resident is not considered an "immediate relative." If you naturalized, then your spouse would be considered an "immediate relative." There are many factors to consider and to discuss in your prospective case, which as noted above may be addressed best at a consultation with an experienced immigration attorney.
