Ok.... my husband of less than a month and I are needing some questions answered.
Here's our situation:
I
am an eighteen year-old U.S. Citizen who was just recently married on December 10 to the love of my life, who is also eighteen. He came here from Mexico at the age of twelve on a Visitor B1/B2 Visa/Border Crossing Card. We met around age fourteen in high school (we graduated Advanced Diploma last May) and have been together since. We are now both Nursing students in college and we both come from Christian homes. His Visa expired in 2005. So, he's overstayed his Visa almost 2.5 years already. He came on an airplane and we cannot find his I-94. We are pretty sure his dad turned it in when his dad left the country, although my husband stayed. We live at my parents' house right now while we're going through college, until we get a house of our own (and nursing jobs). I am taking an overload of college classes, so I clean house, do laundry, etc, for my parents and they pay me. My husband has no job because he has no work permit. My dad is supporting us fully though, (thank the good lord) until we graduate.
Here is the documentation we have:
His expired B1/B2 Visa/ Border Crossing Card; My U.S. Birth Certificate; Our marriage certificate; His passport; His Mexico Birth Certificate and a notarized English translated copy of it.
We've done a TON of research on everything and we understand the long road ahead of us, and the price that goes along with it. You were recommended to me by Micheal Boyle, (a lawyer I emailed in search of someone in Alabama to contact). If you don't mind, I have a few questions for you......
1. How does our situation look?
2. What are our options?,... Briefly speaking.
3. How much lawyer services cost?
4. We must wait five months after our marriage to file for immigranmt relative, work permit, change of status to permenant resident, etc; correct?
5. He has no I-94 because his dad turned it in when he left and my husband stayed here in high school. And will they consider him "uninspected" (because he was inspected when entering through Bronsville, TX, they examined his crossing card; and at the airport). Or will they think he did leave and he came back illegaly? Or can he prove that he was here the whole time by his high school records?
6. What are ways to prove our marriage is legitamate seeing we don't own anything together yet (don't have papers on anything except our bank account together) and probably won't for another 2 1/2 years. (because of living with my parents)
Sorry for all the questions....I would just like some stress relieved (=
