Question

How does marrying an immigrant work, meaning the process?

Answer 1

Legal means no biggie. Illegal means you might not see that person for 10 years... married gives immigration solid proof that the person was in the US illegally.

Answer 2

Marrying an immigrant (legal or illegal) is the same either way. You will be married and able to sponsor for them to have permanent residence in the US. However, they will possibly have to go back to their country and wait for approval of the application and offer of the visa.

Best thing to do is talk to an immigration attorney as well as check out www.uscis.org for more information.
