 My husband is a green card holder, and is in the US. He has filed a petition for me and our kids, but it will take many years before we can get our visas. It’s very hard for us to be away from each other, and our children miss their father. What is the fastest way to be with him in the US?

I am single and under petition.  I have a common-law spouse, whom I would like to marry, but I am receiving conflicting advice and information about whether it’s OK to marry, and the effect that marriage would have on my petition.

                    [Title] => Would marriage hurt my petition?
                    [Summary] => 
(Part I)


I am single and under petition.  I have a common-law spouse, whom I would like to marry, but I am receiving conflicting advice and information about whether it’s OK to marry, and the effect that marriage would have on my petition. 


When would marriage affect the validity of a person’s petition?


Very truly yours,


S.G.
