  • Illegal aliens can no longer apply for status from within the US. If they choose to marry, he will have to return to his country of origin while she files for a spousal visa and he responds to the application at his embassy. The process can take from a year to years depending on what the backup is like at that particular embassy.

    I'd suggest an attorney. There IS a "hardship" waiver that some have attempted. This is very difficult to obtain these days and almost always rejected, but it something an attorney might try.
