Common sense of applying for American spouse immigration

The advantage of spouses of American citizens and permanent residents when applying for immigration is that spouses of American citizens have no time limit. When American citizens apply for immigration for their spouses, they have different application procedures according to whether their spouses are in the United States or overseas.

1) One-step application: citizens and their foreign spouses can apply for immigration and status adjustment at the same time. Citizens must apply for immigration for their spouses on the i- 130 form, and this foreign spouse must apply for status adjustment in the United States using the i-485 form, and at the same time apply for a work card (i-765 form) and a vacation certificate. This application is called "one-step application".

Although the immigration law allows spouses of American citizens who overstay in the United States to adjust their status and obtain a green card in the United States, they do not need to go back to their home countries to apply for immigration visas. However, it should be noted that if you have overstayed at the time of application, you should not apply for leave to go abroad. Because it is possible that at the time of entry, the Immigration Bureau will not allow the applicant to enter the United States for 3 years or 10 years. Spouses with green cards are not so preferential. If the spouses of green cards want to adjust their status in the United States, they must maintain their valid non-immigrant status and wait for the timetable. After the scheduled arrival, they can apply for i-485 status adjustment. If a foreign spouse holding a green card cannot maintain his legal status, he needs to go back to China to apply for an immigrant visa, but he cannot adjust his status in the United States.

2) Interview: After receiving the application, the Immigration Bureau will arrange an interview for citizens and their spouses. If they have been married for two years when the interview is approved, the green card obtained is a permanent green card; If they have been married for less than two years when the interview is approved, the green card obtained is a conditional green card.

3) Remove restrictions on conditional green cards: Foreign spouses who have obtained conditional green cards have the same rights, obligations and legal protection as those who have obtained permanent green cards. Only the spouse of an American citizen whose status is restricted must apply to cancel the restriction within 90 days before the second anniversary of obtaining this green card in order to obtain formal permanent resident status.

If the foreign spouse does not apply for lifting the restriction within the second anniversary, the conditional green card will automatically expire on the second anniversary when the foreign spouse obtains the green card, and the foreign spouse will be regarded as overstaying. Therefore, it is very important to keep in mind that the second anniversary of obtaining a conditional green card is very important for maintaining legal status.
