Somebody plz answer my question?

Yes, you can marry a U.S citizen to get a green card. To become a U.S citizen, you have to wait at least five years.

A fake marriage would make you liable for immigration fraud, and that is not a good start to acquire citizenship.

However, if you make a legitimate marriage, there are guidelines provided by the immigration service, such as proof of a shared address, a joint checking account and assets held in both names. You also need to be prepared for spontaneous visits by authorities. First, you will be awarded permanent residency in the form of a Green Card, and in about 3 years you may apply for citizenship.

No, a fake marriage is breaking the law, and they are cracking down on those big time. And, it's been 8 years, and my husband is still waiting for citizenship. Try not breaking our laws, and you'll do just fine, but unless you are from Hollyweird, it will take years.

There is a lot that goes into the process of becoming a US citizen, regardless if you marry one or not. By marrying one, you subject yourself to countless interviews, paperwork, etc. They make double sure that its a real marriage. I believe you have to be married for 3 years BEFORE the paperwork even gets started on those. I know a Russian woman that married a US citizen and that was their waiting time before she could file. Regardless of what route you try to use, NONE of it is easily done. Citizenship takes years.

Any time you try and cheat the Federal Government it is a bad idea. If you do manage to "trick" them, but then what if you decide to get a divorce and everything is split equally....good for the party that brought nothing to the marriage, bad for the party that made most of the money.

Please just get an extended visa, and follow the channels to get a real green card, or full citizenship. Americans are pretty tolerant, but we don't like it when somebody lies to us.

No, it is harder now. I know someone that tried that, and it didn't work. How about you try doing it honestly? It's immigrants like you that make our country a bad place to live

My wife came to the US on a refugee visa. We are in the process of getting her citizenship - and I can assure you that they check and they do know all of the tricks. (Makes it something of a pain for us honest folks.)

I really hope your not going to do that. You will be breaking the law and if you are caught you will not only be deported but possibly NEVER allowed in the US again.
There are other ways you know.

Mexicans prefer to get pregnant, then fly to America, hide out and have the baby who is then American by law. This is called an "Anchor Baby." It has worked for 11 million Mexicans, and they rarely marry Americans.

However, I am American of many generations, and I feel it is a decent thing to marry just for the papers. It is "arranged "marriage, and often times these will succeed more than a "love" marriage.

As the saying goes "With a love marriage, the love may fizzle. With an arranged marriage, well, it is an arrangement."

American women do not like it, but you will find support among the American men, I assure you. And especially if you are a nurse, or teacher, everyone will love you in America, because we need these right away.

Please do not give up hope. Your question is a good one, and I wish you good luck.

If you engage in this criminal activity, you run many risks besides getting caught by the government.

Many times, since the "husband" has a strong hold over you (he can cancel the petition at anytime (or not even file it) and not even tell you) he can make you a "slave wife" always holding "I'll tell immigration that this is a sham marriage (a cooperating us citizen spouse is rarely - if ever prosecuted) and they will put you in jail."

Martial rape is a bad thing. Is it REALLY worth it?

I acquired citizenship through marriage to a US citizen! It is not as easy as it used to be ! I strongly urge you NOT to do it out of fraudulent reasons! You will get caught! There is also financial obligations of spousal support if divorce occurs before citizenship! It is called an Affidavit of Support!!! So don't think you can just marry , get your green card and say see you later like the old days! There is also a probation period and interviews!!
