If one is a green card holder and marries an illegal alien does this make it harder for the green card holder to later apply for US citizenship?
== ==
How can i apply for citizenship outside the US?
First and foremost requirement to apply for US citizenship is that you need to be in US as a green card holder and more than 18 years of age. Only with continuous residence in US for 5 years as a green card holder you will be eligible to apply.
Green card holder can apply for spouse?
you can. However it will take 5-6 years to obtain, so you need to update the pending application once you get citizenship.
Can an illegal alien get married to a green card holder and get a status?
They will be just married to the card holder; that will not help the illegal in any way, and could have a bearing on whether the card holder can get citizenship (assisting a person they know to be committing a crime, for example).
Can a Canada holding a E2 visa get citizenship after marrying a US citizen?
Citizenship cannot be got directly without becoming a green card holder first.By maintaining legal status, the Canadian should first get the green card after being petitioned by US citizen spouse by filing Form I-130 and after 5 years as green card holder he/she can apply for US citizenship by filing Form N-400.
What rights do you have if you have a us green card and lived in the us?
As a green card holder staying in US you have the rights to live and work there. Apart from this you can also petition for your close relatives using Form I-130 for them to get green card. Above all after five years of being a green card holder if you are eligible you can apply for US citizenship.
Can you still get your green card if your citizenship was denied?
Basic criteria to apply for US citizenship is to be a green card holder in US. Only if you already have a green card for a minimum period of 5 years and above age of 18 years and have stayed in US continuously during that period you are eligible to apply for US citizenship. If citizenship is denied you still can continue to stay in US as a green card holder. In case you are not happy with decision after applying for US citizenship using Form N-336 you get another chance of applying for US citizenship. Once you correct the mistake because of which citizenship was denied in the first place the second time you apply you can be sure to get citizenship. Elaborate and careful preparation of the Form N-400 is very important.
Can you be denied a green card if you have bipolar disorder?
Bipolar disorder will not prevent someone from getting a green card. Federal law prohibits discrimination against those with disabilities or illnesses.
You are a green card holder you are traveling from Ohio to North Dakota Do you need to carry your Green Card with you when you travel or a valid identification will do?
I am assuming your citizenship won't be called to attention unless need be. If you are traveling in the states this makes it even more unlikely that carrying a green card with you will be neccessary. The validity of your citizenship is assumed unless otherwise called into question.
Can a green card holder marry someone without one?
That depends on the motives of the green card holder ;)

You are a green card holder and will be applying for a US citizenship If you married a Chinese citizen who is living outside US and then apply for the citizenship together will she become a citizen?
She can get US citizenship right after the marriage. You'll have to get her a fiance visa and start the immigration process. After obtaining her green card (which usually takes about 2 years), she needs to live in the US for an additional 3 years. Then she can apply for US citizenship.
