I’m off status on my F-1 visa since July 2019, and married to US citizen since May 2019. Will I have issues filing for green card through marriage. I was planning to do so in the upcoming month.
A: You can adjust status because you are married to a U.S Citizen. Your success will be dependent on how the questions are answered, your background history, how the application is filled out, and other important factors that are considered by the immigration officers. If you are not sure what steps to take, please contact an immigration attorney to guide you through the process.
