Yes, you can marry a US citizen. But do not try to forge the marriage just for getting permanent residence status in the country. As the officials are smart enough to get hold of the things and if caught in the act you will be immediately deported and will never be able to visit or live in USA.

If the marriage is real then you can apply for Green Card after 1-2 years of your marriage. Also, if there is divorce (God Forbid) then your Green Card will be canceled immediately and you will have to leave the country.

Can a foreigner on a valid work visa marry a US citizen and stay in the US legally without returning home or needing a fiancee visa?

Yes, this is done all the time. Best to wait 60 days after the entry to marry so it doesn't look like you made a misrepresentation. File the relative petition and adjustment, work authorization, and Advance Parole travel document -- best not to travel on the visitor visa after you've married. You might end up stuck outside the U.S.


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.


What documents does a US citizen need to take to Mexico to marry a Mexican citizen there?

When marrying a US citizen how long does it take to process your papers and become a resident?

If the marriage is found to be valid it takes a minimum of 6-18 months to obtain permanent residence status (green card). The parties must remain legally married and residing together for three years before the immigrant can apply for US citizenship. Persons who are in the US illegally are not eligible for permanent resident status and citizenship even if they marry a US citizen.
