I married an illegal immigrant in July, 2003. As a result I cannot foster children or adopt them. I probably will not get custody of my neice that I have applied for. I cannot get health insurance because his income cannot be counted partially because he is not allowed to work, partially because he is paid cash. I worry every night when he is later than usual from work that the Immigration has picked him up, I cannot get into student housing because he has no social security number, etc., etc., etc. If I were not so happy in my relationship, I would have ended this marriage to reclaim my rights as an American citizen. Basically, by entering this marriage, I have made myself an illegal immigrant with little to no rights.

If you do it for money, you can go to jail . If you do it for love, that person can still be deported . Best consult a lawyer that deals with Immigration law.
