I have no idea. You should call your local court house or city council and ask what is required. All states are probably different so they would no best what is needed and where to go. If they don't have that information, they will at least be able to give you a better idea of where to ask.

Answer

I would make sure his 'work visa' does not expire. If he overstays on his visa - its going to be VERY VERY difficult for him to begin any papers here even though you are a U.S. Citizen. Trust me - I am going through this same situation right now! All you have to do is go to usembassy and you will find information about all of this! Good luck!

Answer

All he needs to get married is a valid picture I.D. A passport, driver's licens, or work-authorization card with his picture will all work. Some states will ask for a social security number. Contrary to what a previous person said, it will NOT be difficult to get him his greencard, even if he overstays his visa, as long as he entered the US legally. Once you marry, file the I-485. You can download it at http://www.uscis.gov He should NOT leave the country while the I-485 is pending if he has overstayed his visa. If he needs to leave the country and has not overstayed his visa, he will need to file for advanced parole. The I-485 takes from one to four years to complete depending on the part of the country you're in.

Outstanding answer.. the I-485 is used for those who want to adjust status while in the United states.. It costs about 1500.00, not included is the medical exam, TB test etc. That person had to make "legal entry" and the I-94 (valid) is can be used as proof that they did. If you start right after you get married, it will take about 90 days before the interview. Make sure you follow the direction in the USCIS web site and fill-out all the forms. You will also have to get the persons birth certificate translated into english and must be certified. There are several ON-LINE web sites that can do this for you and they are real fast. Once the I-485 is filed the person is considered to be "adjusting status" and will be considered to be out of status if that person leaves the country for ANY reason without approval. The answer above is right on...if there is a emergency..death etc.., you can get approved for an advance parole where that person can leave without giving up this adjustment of status. When you get to the border just present the advance parole, they can enter provided no previous violations of law and resume their status. Just remember, at the border they will be subject to inspection and they could be found (criminal history or violations) inadmissiable.

Marriage requirements are the same for all people. Immigration status has no bearing on your right to marry. As long as you are not currently married and are over 18 years old, you should be able to obtain a marriage license. If you are not in the United States and you want to come to marry an American, than you will need to apply for a fiancee visa.

Note however, that if you want to apply for a green card through marriage in the U.S. after the wedding, you shouldn't be on a visitors visa, since otherwise you will have to prove that you did not enter the U.S. with an intent to get married.

How can a US citizen marry an illegal immigrant if he has his birth certificate from Mexico but does not have valid US indentification documents?

Due to stricter immigration enforcement it is no longer a simple matter for a US citizen to marry a foreign national regardless of his or her status within the US. In the majority of US states, the foreign national must have a valid ID, Social Security number, birth certificate and proof of legal status before he or she will be allowed to marry. In the few states that do not require all of the aforementioned documents the foreign national may be allowed to marry with just a valid ID and a birth certificate. Regardless of such, any information obtained by state officials concerning a possible illegal immigrant is forwarded to the Division of Homeland Security and ICE.
