- Q. Im on B1B2 visa and im getting married to an American citizen. ..so what should I do to get my green card or work permit
- A: Consult with a lawyer to review eligibility for permanent residence and discuss what the options are: for example, is adjustment of status a viable option or is consular filing better? Applying for a work permit is a separate issue than applying for permanent residence but you may be eligible to file for a work permit if you have a pending application for a green card. Again, these cases can become complicated. You should talk with an immigration attorney.
- Q. If i got married to a us citizen but he don't work can he apply for me to get my green card?

- Q. I don't know which I - 864 I need to fill out.
- A: You should seek the advice of an attorney who can sit down and review the financials. Depending on who is willing to help, that person may have to execute an I-864 or possibly and I-864A. There are different rules.
