Frequently asked questions
Can I get a green card through marriage if I overstayed my visa?
In many cases, yes. Immediate relatives of U.S. citizens may still qualify for adjustment of status despite an overstay, though the specifics depend on how you entered the country. Attorney Stamman reviews your eligibility and handles complications like overstays and prior entries.
How long does the marriage green card process take?
Timelines vary based on USCIS processing and your specific circumstances. Filing a complete, accurate application the first time helps avoid delays, requests for evidence, and denials, which is exactly where careful legal preparation pays off.
