Petitioner got unemployed a month before spouse’s embassy interview

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
At this stage, probably the best thing to do (unless you receive word from the embassy to upload the support documents) is to have your spouse bring in an updated signed I-864 with documents by you. If you find a new job and have documentation of such, you can show that in the updated I-864. If you do not have a new position, it would probably be best to add a signed I-864 with documents by a joint sponsor. An updated I-864 should not delay adjudication if it is clear that there is sufficient financial support. Please note that this is general advice and that we do not claim to know any local rules or practices of the embassy in the Philippines.

What are the implications of marrying a Brazilian citizen who is still waiting for his permanent residency here in the United States?

Immigration lawyer at Babic Law Firm, PLLC
It is not illegal for you to marry, but it may entail quite a lengthy process for him to secure a green card. In my practice I consult many clients with similar questions. You should schedule an appointment with a trusted attorney versed in immigration law before marrying and explore his visa paths. His current status is unclear from your question and so would need to be explored further. If he does not receive his green card via his mother then he would have to exit, marry, then re-enter U.S. based on a marriage visa.
