Immigration lawyer at Fong Ilagan
You can only petition for your fiance after you are married. If you are, then you can file for the permanent residence while in the US, without needing to leave. Please call me for details and a more specific timeline.

Can I stay in the US on visa if I am married to a green card holder and am the father of a citizen?

Christine Victoria Troy
Answered by attorney Christine Victoria Troy (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Christine Troy
You can ask for a visitor's visa to the US at your US consulate. Because you are married to a green card holder, it is very likely they will deny it because they will fear you will not leave the US once you get here. The alternative is for your wife to start the green card process for you. She can file the I-130 petition with DHS now. Under current processing times it will take about three years until you can enter as a green card holder. If your wife becomes a USC, then you can upgrade your petition and immediately move through the green card process.

There are certain crimes which would make it more difficult for you to petition for your husband. Therefore, we would need more facts before we knew whether they would affect your ability to sponsor him.
