Legal Question in Immigration Law in Colorado
My husband and I have been married since June. He is not a legal citizen of the US. What do we have to do to make him legal?
1 Answer from Attorneys
It depends on whether he is eligible for adjustment of status or not. I suggest that before filing any petitions with the DHS (and therefore declaring his status and address to the government), you consult a good immigration lawyer.
If eligible for adjustment of status, he might be able to apply for a green card (residency) without having to depart the United States. Otherwise, he might be required to go back to his home country to apply for an appropriate visa.
