Can an illegal immigrant become legal by marrying an us citizen ?

Posted on January 28, 2010 by Brian D. Lerner, Immigration Lawyer & Deportation Attorney

There are many ways that somebody who is here illegally can ultimately get their Green Card. For example, if the marriage is bonafide and you entered legally, but then fell out of status, you could adjust status in the U.S. (unless you entered on a C1/D visa.) Even then, while you might not qualify to adjust status, it is possible to be able to consular process with different types of waivers.
