My girlfriend of 10 years and I are applying for green cards. Due to marriage not being an important thing for us, we are not married. This means that we have to put 'single' on every immigration type form we've come across as officialdom seems to believe you are not in a committed relationship unless you have a certificate that says you are (sorry, I tend to rant on this issue)
If one of us is successful in our application, will the other have any spousal rights? (I'm guessing not) What about if one of us is successful and then we go and get married?
any thoughts would be appreciated
