Sorry, she can't.
No. An immigrant who is unlawfully present within the US cannot be sponsored for permanent residency or citizenship. They must voluntarily return to their country of origin or face deportation. After leaving the US the foreign national will be barred from applying for reentry for 3-10 years depending upon the individual's circumstances.
No. If he was illegal before, he's still illegal. He will need to go through the system to seek a green card. If he already has violated U.S. laws, he may never be able to seek citizenship.
Yes, but not likely. They will still have to leave the country and face a 10 year ban based on how long they were here illegally.
Apply for citizenship through the Bureau of Immigration.
I may be incorrect with my theory, but from what I gather - I can serve in the U.S military as an immigrant and this gets me a green card... this then grants me U.S citizenship? Please correct me if I am wrong and/or could you please explain the ways i can get U.S citizenship through the military?
Through the US citizen spouse can get green card after two years of marriage and after 3rd anniversary can apply for US citizenship using Form N-400.
yes, eventually with all the proper procedures in place.
Thomas Jefferson campaigned for repeal of the Alien acts. Jimmy Carter favored a general amnesty for illegal immigrants. Barack Obama promises "immigration reform" which helped him get Hispanic votes and is generally assumed to mean some easy path for illegal immigrants to gain citizenship without going through the current legal steps.
In 2011 Mexico decriminalized illegal immigration, thus becoming an administrative infraction punishable with a fine that stays around US$500. Mexico also recognizes dual citizenship, so all you have to do is to define your status, pay the corresponding fine and begin the process to acquire legal residence through the FM2 (immigrant) process. You should however, consult a legal advisor.
If you are talking about citizenship, then you are not an automatic citizen, because you were not born on U.S. soil. Your parents would have to fill out some paperwork, otherwise you would be an illegal immigrant. No, that is incorrect. Any child born to a U.S. citizen is considered a U.S. citizen themselves, automatically. You may have to provide a birth certificate (or equivalent birth record) along with documenting the legal U.S. citizenship of your parent(s), but you are otherwise automatically entitled to U.S. citizenship with no additional hoops to jump through.
ANI AnswerIn America, you have to be born here to aquire citizenship, however you can gain citizenship through naturalization, which requires that you be a permenent resident of the country and abide by all the nations laws. This abiding by laws means that if you get arrested it makes it exceedingly difficult to become a citizen, if not impossible.There is another law that states if an illegal immigrant is below the age of 18 that person receives immediate citizenship. I wonder if an Arabic child, born into a terrorist family could immigrate to America, use the system to his advantage and then plot an attack? A little scary huh?
Yes. Paperwork. Lots and lots of paperwork to apply for citizenship. But luck must be on their side because final selections are done 'lottery' style and only a small percentage of those who apply are accepted each year. * Marriage to a US citizen does not guarantee permanent resident status or citizenship for the immigrant spouse. It simply upgrades the procedure priority of the applicant. Sure, he can go home, apply for entry through LEGAL processes and enter the country when he has been invited.
