Citizenship and Marriage

It depends upon the state or the country in question. A birth certificate is going to be the biggie. Check with your local governmetn info number for specific info about your jurisdiction.

Yes, it was signed by President Bill Clinton and took effect September 21, 1996.

No, US citizen child can sponsor for the parents to come to US. Once they get their green card either through consular process staying outside US or Form I-130 petition while in US, they are eligible to apply for US citizenship by naturalization process by filing Form N-400 after continuous stay in US as green card holders for minimum 5 years.

If you were legally married in the United States, he is an American citizen, whatever his status at the time of your marriage. If he has been arrested for this, the two of you can recover damages for false arrest in a court of law. Get an attorney immediately.

Legal separations are the step right before divorce. Most couples do not choose to legally separate but rather just get divorced.

Bigamous marriages are never valid. If you marry someone under gods eyes then its the promise that you are willing to share with that one person. Its actually illegal to marry someone and then marry again without ending or divorcing someone. Its like you marry to be cheated on for the rest of your life instead of finding someone else you can hold on to and live happy for the rest of your life. If you think if bigamous is a good thing then go on make it valid, but you will always regret it consiciously.

Report it to the public utility from which it is being stolen, they will keep the information anonymous and will take action to have the thief disconnected - some may even pay a small fee for the info.

I believe that anyone can change his/her name (first or last) whenever he/she wishes to do so. You just have to apply for it and follow or requirements.

Yes, it is possible to escape from jail. It actually happens infrequently.

There are any number of opportunities. However, jail escape is much more difficult than prison escape.

Staying free after the escape is another matter. Seems the police often need only go to your house or your family's house to pick you up, as these are the places the majority of new escapees go immediately after securing their freedom.

From the U.S. Citizenship and Immigrations Services site: http://www.uscis.gov/ a total of $675 would be required unless you are 75 or older. You can get sample tests, flash cards and other items for free from that site. "Filing Fee : $595 plus a biometrics fee of $80; the fee total is $675. Applicants 75 years of age or older are not charged a biometric fee; their fee total is $595. No fee is required for military applicants filing under Section 328 and 329 of the INA." Perhaps someone would care to share supporting information on the below claim that I am correcting: on average, about $15,050.00 to become a citizen, plus all kinds of hidden fees after you become a citizen.

In the state of Florida if a person is found guilty of statue 794.011 he or she is guilty of a felony in the second degree which is punishable up to 15 years in prison. This true if the victim is at least 18 years of age or older. If the victim is younger the the charge may be enhanced to a felony of the 1st degree and if the victim is 12 or younger it can even be a capital felony which can have a term of life.

No, marrying a U.S. citizen does not automatically convey permanent residency or citizenship. The proper procedures for obtaining resident status will need to be followed by the non-citizen, the issue of a criminal record may play a significant part in a decision by the USICS. (www.usics.gov)

No, you do not have to apply in the county where you live. You have to apply in the county in which the marriage will take place.

That is against the law ... it's called Bigamy.

In Western countries a person can only be legally married to one person at a time. Your second "marriage" would be null and void. However, you may be committing fraud depending on the circumstances.

A green card means that you have U.S. permanent residence, that being the right to live and work in the U.S. for an unlimited amount of time. A visa is a right to enter the United States; it's really a physical thing. you can come to the U.S., say as a student, a visitor, or on some other temporary status.

No this is not possible. For the divorce to be legal both parties have to be aware of the divorce. There are also other requirements such as both have to be within the country at the same time so for example (this is based on a true story) if a military wife decided she liked the Pepsi guy more than her husband who has been in Iraq for a year she cannot proceed to get a divorce until he is notified and returned from deployment.

A Muslim is anyone who believes in and follows Islam. Islam is a religion, and is not restricted to one region or race. This means that there are Muslims living all around the world, in every single country. Muslims can be of any race, color, nationality, language, etc.

They are called an illegal immigrant.

This question does not specify country. For Canada the simple answer is - No. Studying in Canada requires a Temporary Resident Visa AND a study permit.

This process is an outside Canada process.

A resident cannot ask for someone trying to gain residency, married or not. If the permanent resident becomes a citizen, then yes, they can request residensy for their spouse.

First, seek an immigration attorney. Most of the ethnic attorneys practice immigration law.

If you entered without inspection (illegal border crossing), you are out of luck. You need what's called INA 245(i). Last president who allowed 245(i) was Clinton. Before he left office, 245(i) were activated. So that EWIs(Entry without inspection) could get greencard if they get a job that sponsors them or get married to a citizen. But not now. 245(i) is not active now.

Currently President Bush said that no one who entered illegally will get a greencard. So, if you entered illegally without CIS inspection, you have to wait until Bush leaves the office and then hopefully, Congress will revive 245(i). Republican party has not been very friendly to foreigners. Yes, President allowed seasonal workers but that's very limited, and they don't get greencards. So you have to wait.

But.... If you came to US with a proper visa and entered after proper inspection, (that is if CIS officer stapled a piece of white paper called I-94 in your passport), then you have entered properly. If you entered properly, and over-stayed, you are illegally staying. If you are "illegal alien" in that sense, no problem. You can get married now to a citizen and get a greencard. After three years of having greencard, you can apply for a citizenship too.

I should think whether or not citizen is an ex-felon would not matter. Citizenship and Immigraion Service(CIS) requires only a proof of citizenship. Such include a US passport, a birth certificate in US, or a naturalization certificate. Fingerprinting or criminal records are not required for the citizen. But those things are required for the alien. But my knowledge about an ex-felon's rights as a citizen is limited, you should ask an immigration attorney or call CIS customer service. 1 800 375-5283

Call a few times, the customer service is known to give different answers.

Marrying a foreign national for the sole of purpose of the person obtaining permanent resident status or becoming a citizen is illegal. It is a violation of federal law and punishable by fines and imprisonment for both parties. In addition the foreign national will be deported after serving his or her sentence and will not be allowed to ever reenter the U.S. Furthermore, it is a misconception that marriage of a foreign national to a U.S. citizen guarantees permanent resident status or citizenship, it does not. It does however place a higher priority level on the person's application for residency and/or citizenship.

Only if the baby has reached the legal age, i believe is 21
