About the marriage of American students! !

1. You can get married. I remember getting my passport and driver's license, then having my birth notarized and going to city hall to register for marriage. As far as I can remember, I didn't ask for my education certificate or anything during the whole process from marriage to applying for a green card. Personally, I think it is legal as long as the I2 and visa have not expired. 2. You can apply for a green card. I must find an immigration lawyer. At that time, I got a large stack of forms, all of which were prepared by lawyers. They will tell you what materials to prepare. I also applied for a marriage green card from F1. I attach a list given to me by my lawyer at that time for your reference ~

I was a lawyer at that time and told me to go to a doctor certified by the Immigration Bureau in Chinatown, New York for a blood test, and then I got a vaccine, and then the doctor would send my report directly to my lawyer. So I haven't seen it myself. )

. Applying for this is just a matter of convenience, and there is no need to pay. Generally, it will be available within 9 days, and then you can apply for SSN, and you can get the SSN card two weeks later and you can work ~ < P > 4. As for the time from submitting the green card application to the interview and then getting the green card, it varies from state to state. Let me talk about my experience. I am in NJ, I submitted my application at the end of January, and then I waited for fingerprinting, that is, the immigration department wanted to input your fingerprint. I was told to go to the immigration office for fingerprinting one month after I submitted my application. Then I waited for the interview for 8 months! ! ! I didn't go to the interview until late September, and then the interview went well, and I got my green card within two weeks. What an extraordinary time I have been waiting for an interview! I was going crazy waiting. However, my lawyer said that the interview usually takes half a year ... If the interview goes well, you will get a green card in two weeks. If it doesn't go well, the immigration officer who interviewed you will have to do more research and may need additional information, so it will take longer.

I've talked a lot at once, but I don't know if it's a little messy. If you have any specific questions or need more interview experience in the future, you can trust me privately ~
