Can you get a green card if you marry a permanent resident?
An immigrant visa available to the spouses of U.S. citizens and permanent residents is a marriage-based green card (or ‘spousal visa’).
While the procedure can seem overwhelming, whether one partner is a U.S. citizen or green card holder, most couples qualify for a marriage-based green card.
Tips for a Marriage Based Green Card Interview!
Visa interviews can be very stressful so before attending we suggest you: are on time for your interview (better if you arrive 30 minutes early), wear appropriate clothing, prepare beforehand to answer all types of questions, answer the questions in a calm and organized manner, do not panic if you get separated from your spouse and of course bring all the right documentation.
