Q. Hello, my Fiancee lives in Thailand. I am a US citizen. She wants to relocate to the US and aquire a green card. Options

February 17, 2023

A: A: Hello! The process for obtaining a green card for your fiancé(e) in Thailand typically involves several steps, including filing a petition and supporting documentation with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and attending an interview at a U.S. embassy or consulate. The time frame for completing this process can vary depending on various factors, such as the workload of the USCIS and the U.S. embassy or consulate processing the case, as well as any potential delays or complications that may arise. On average, the process can take several months to a year or more. As for the fees, the cost of obtaining a green card for your fiancé(e) can vary, but it typically includes the cost of filing the petition and supporting documentation with USCIS, as well as any fees associated with medical exams and other requirements. If you provide me with more information about your specific case, such as your fiancee's qualifications and your relationship history, I can try to provide more tailored guidance.

Q. If I let my DACA expire and then married a US citizen. What can I do to begin the process to a green card ?

February 17, 2023

A: If you let your DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) expire and then marry a U.S. citizen, you may be eligible to apply for a green card based on your marriage. However, whether or not you can adjust your status to a green card within the United States may depend on how you entered the United States and whether you were inspected by an immigration officer. If you entered the United States with inspection and were admitted, you may be able to apply for adjustment of status to a green card based on your marriage to a U.S. citizen, even if your DACA has expired. Please note that immigration laws and policies are subject to change and that every case is unique. As such, the information provided here is not intended to be legal advice and should not be relied upon without further consultation with a qualified immigration professional. If you would like further consultation, please feel free to contact me.
