Hi all,
I am a US citizen and my husband is here illegally, what can I do to make him legal?

Is he an overstay or an illegal entrant? An illegal because of an overstay is forgiven by marriage to a USC. AN illegal entrant (EWI) cannot be made legal while he is in the US and a quick legalization is not possible without qualifying for a waiver.

Hi all,
I am a US citizen and my husband is here illegally, what can I do to make him legal? As the other member answered thats right. If your husband had overstayed & became illigal thats simple. You being an US citizen can adjust his status easily but if his entry is not legal its complicated.
I just filed for my wife ( legal entry but overstayed ) & all it took us only 4 months & wifes GC already been approved also card has been mailed too. It will take just a matter of time to be in our mail box.
So as you can see what I meant. Overstay is forgiven to USCIS if married to an US citizen but entry has to be legal.
Atique.
