Topic1 Green card

Green card

Hi,

Me and my girlfriend are planning to get married this Oct. She is a US citizen but currently unemployed and gets benefits from Social Services. If I go ahead and apply for green card after getting married, will it have an effect on her benefits she is receiving right now.

Thanks

It depends on the program. If she is unempl;oyed, how does she plan to meet the financial sponsorship requirements? Are you legally in the US and working with authorization?

I am legal in US on F-1 status and unemployed but I have some financial backing. Just want to make sure she continue to get the benefits or else it will be an extra burden.
