Can she stay in the US while the paperworrk is being processed or will she have to go back to Jamaica to file for a spousal visa. Can someone give me the information on the process?I am a US citizen and my girlfriend has a B2 visa can she and I get married?
just go vegas and get married..that will work !!!!I am a US citizen and my girlfriend has a B2 visa can she and I get married?
just get married and file an adjustment of status even if her visa expires she can still stay here.
If you live together in the United States, irregardless of visa status, and if you are not previously married to another woman, nor she is not married to another man, by no means, you can marry her as long as you love each other and your age are consistent, so that no questions will arise that will show that you got married to her because she paid you just to stay in the US.


Congratulations...
all u have to do married your girlfriend and shortly she will get reply few weeks after,her permit to work and etc, she dont have to go back jamaica, only if her parent was filing for her,she would have to go there to pick up her papers, but once there is a wife and husband situation she can stay her she have her green card in six mths time,good luck, if her visa expire she has up to 120 days, and if u dont filed it before the 120 u may make a small fee. call this number 1800-375-5283 USCIS-gov
You can get married, and she shouldn't have to go back, so long as your marriage was ';spur of the moment'; and not planned. If it could be considered to be planned you could run into problems with having misrepresented yourselves in applying for the B2 visa. After getting married you would need to file an I-130 (petition for alien relative to US) and an I-485 (adjustment of status) with the USCIS. Just so you know, it's going to cost you $355 for the I-130 and about $1010 for the I-485, along with the cost of getting married, but it's actually the best for you to do it now. If she returns to Jamaica as others have recommended you'll have to cover the costs of a k-1 fiance visa application and interview, track down immunization documents, police records, and other data required for the interview, while also having to wait 6 months to a year apart from each other. Did I mention in the end you'd still have to pay the grand for the I-485?





Check the links below.
You can get married, but if her visa runs out before you get approval to stay based on marriage, she will have to go back. You don't want overstaying to cause a problem. Go to uscis.gov and look at the process.
If your GF is in the US now, and has entered on her B visa, you should make an appointment to meet with an immigration lawyer to ask this question in private, about your specific circumstances. You do not need to hire the lawyer to file your whole case if you think you can do it, but you should review the circumstances of her last entry to the US with the lawyer first.





If your GF is outside the US, she must not use her tourist visa to come to the US with the intent to get married and stay on that visit.


You should instead review the marriage based visa options for her to immigrate here.
Like most of the people answering i think you should get married and start filling soon after, the only thing i recommend you guys really feel something for each other because the process can get nasty in case USCIS finds that this is a business deal between you too. For one they calculate the time you know each other, another thing is that you also file an affidavit, meaning you have to make enough to sponsor her withouth her working (she cant work right? im not sure what B2 visa is) they will ask for pictures and prove of the relationship, checking join accounts, same address and such. Most of the time it can be easy and not much of questioning but if for some reason they suspect something else is going on, they will deport her and you will go to jail.


Plus in my experience is better to marry someone for love not for convenience. Best of luck. you can check requirements on
